2DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was found in SiteServer SSCMS 7.4.0. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality of the component Agent Installation Workflow. Performing a manipulation of the argument SecurityKey results in improper access controls. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The attack is considered to have high complexity. The exploitation is known to be difficult. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
AnalysisAI
Improper access control in SiteServer SSCMS 7.4.0's Agent Installation Workflow allows remote attackers to bypass security restrictions by manipulating the SecurityKey argument, potentially gaining unauthorized access to protected functionality. The CVSS 4.0 score of 2.3 reflects genuine exploitation difficulty - high attack complexity and required passive user interaction significantly limit opportunistic abuse - though the authentication bypass characterization indicates a security boundary violation is achievable under the right conditions. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | The Agent Installation Workflow component must be accessible over the network, and the SecurityKey-based authorization pathway within it must be reachable. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 2.3 is low, and the limiting factors embedded in the vector are meaningful: AC:H (high attack complexity) signals the exploit cannot be trivially reproduced, and UI:P (passive user interaction) introduces a dependency on victim behavior that reduces automation potential. … 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 | No vendor-released patch has been identified at time of analysis; the SiteServer project has not responded to the responsible disclosure documented in GitHub issue #3898. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
