Vulnerability CVE-2017-16935
Published: 2017-11-24
| Description: |
Ametys before 4.0.3 requires authentication only for URIs containing a /cms/ substring, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via a direct request to /plugins/core-ui/servercomm/messages.xml, as demonstrated by changing the admin password by obtaining account details via a users/search.json request, and then modifying the account via an editUser request. |
Type:
CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation)
