Descriptions

ManageEngine Applications Manager 12 and 13 before build 13200, allows unserialization of unsafe Java objects. The vulnerability can be exploited by remote user without authentication and it allows to execute remote code compromising the application as well as the operating system. As Application Manager's RMI registry is running with privileges of system administrator, by exploiting this vulnerability an attacker gains highest privileges on the underlying operating system.

ManageEngine Applications Manager 12 y 13 antes de la build 13200 permite la deserialización de objetos Java inseguros. La vulnerabilidad puede ser explotada por usuarios remotos sin autenticación y permite la ejecución de código remoto que comprometa la aplicación, así como el sistema operativo. Como el registro RMI de Application Manager se ejecuta con privilegios de administrador del sistema, al explotar esta vulnerabilidad un atacante obtiene los mayores privilegios en el sistema operativo subyacente.
