DescriptionCVE.org

Tanium addressed a server-side request forgery vulnerability in Threat Response.

AnalysisAI

An authenticated server-side request forgery (SSRF) in Tanium Threat Response allows a user who already holds valid console or module credentials to coerce the Tanium server into making requests to attacker-influenced URLs, potentially disclosing internal-only resources. The vendor scores it 6.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N), which matches our independent assessment: remote reachability with low attack complexity, but the low-privilege authentication requirement is the main limiting factor and there is no user interaction needed. …
