CRITICALCVSS Vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H
Lifecycle Timeline
2Description
Affected devices do not properly enforce user authentication on specific API endpoints. This could facilitate an unauthenticated remote attacker to circumvent authentication and impersonate a legitimate user. Successful exploitation requires that the attacker has learned the identity of a legitimate user.
Analysis
An API authentication bypass allows unauthenticated attackers to impersonate legitimate users. Maximum CVSS 10.0 with scope change. Requires knowledge of a legitimate user's identity.
Technical Context
Specific API endpoints do not enforce proper user authentication (CWE-639). An attacker who knows a legitimate user's identity can impersonate them without credentials.
Affected Products
See vendor advisory
Remediation
Apply vendor patches. Implement proper authentication on all API endpoints.
