Summary

HCL BigFix: Mehrere Schwachstellen

Severity

Mittel

Scope

7 vulnerabilities in this advisory, including CVE-2024-42186.

CVE-2024-42186

Es bestehen mehrere Schwachstellen in HCL BigFix. Diese Schwachstellen betreffen das Patch Management Download Plug-in aufgrund verschiedener Sicherheitsprobleme, darunter serverseitige Anforderungsfälschung, beliebiger Dateidownload, Path Traversal Problem und unzulässige Protokollunterstützung. Ein lokaler Angreifer kann diese Schwachstellen ausnutzen, um Daten zu manipulieren, vertrauliche Informationen preiszugeben, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen und einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand zu erzeugen. Für eine erfolgreiche Ausnutzung ist eine Benutzerinteraktion erforderlich, und einige der Schwachstellen erfordern erhöhte Rechte.
