An authentication bypass in ManageEngine DDI Central's password-reset workflow allows account takeover.
AnalysisAI
Authentication bypass in Zoho ManageEngine DDI Central versions prior to 6201 lets remote unauthenticated attackers hijack the password-reset workflow to seize control of arbitrary accounts. Successful takeover of an administrative account grants full control over the DNS, DHCP, and IPAM management platform, with total impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires network reachability to the ManageEngine DDI Central web application and specifically its password-reset workflow, which must be enabled and accessible to the attacker; the flaw resides in that reset process, so an attacker interacts with the account-recovery feature rather than a normal login. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The supplied CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N, C:H/I:H/A:H = 9.8) indicates a low-complexity, network-reachable, unauthenticated attack requiring no user interaction - the maximum-severity profile. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in. |
| Remediation | Patch available per vendor advisory: upgrade ManageEngine DDI Central to build 6201 or later, which is the first version outside the vulnerable range according to the EUVD data; the exact fixed build should be confirmed against the vendor bulletin at https://www.manageengine.com/dns-dhcp-ipam/security-updates/security-updates.html before deployment. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
Recommended ActionAI
Within 24 hours, immediately isolate or restrict network access to all Zoho ManageEngine DDI Central instances to authorized administrators only using firewall or network controls, pending patch deployment. …
