Therefore, if the network communication or endpoints for these applications are not protected, unauthorized actors can bypass authentication and make unauthorized connections to the server application." } ] }, "generator": { "engine": "Vulnogram 0.0.9" }, "impact": { "cvss": { "attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "NETWORK", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 9.8, "baseSeverity": "CRITICAL", "confidentialityImpact": "HIGH", "integrityImpact": "HIGH", "privilegesRequired": "NONE", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H", "version": "3.1" } }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "CWE-602 Client-Side Enforcement of Server-Side Security" } ] }, { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "CWE-305 Authentication Bypass by Primary Weakness" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "refsource": "MISC", "url": "https://search.abb.com/library/Download.aspx?DocumentID=2PAA123980&LanguageCode=en&DocumentPartId=&Action=Launch", "name": "https://search.abb.com/library/Download.aspx?DocumentID=2PAA123980&LanguageCode=en&DocumentPartId=&Action=Launch" } ] }, "source": { "advisory": "2PAA123980, 2PAA123982", "discovery": "INTERNAL" } }
