Descriptions

A Remote Denial of Service vulnerability in HPE Intelligent Management Center (iMC) PLAT version iMC Plat 7.3 E0504P2 was found.

Se ha encontrado una vulnerabilidad de denegación de servicio (DoS) remota en HPE Intelligent Management Center (iMC) PLAT versión iMC Plat 7.3 E0504P2.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files on vulnerable installations of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Intelligent Management Center. Although authentication is required to exploit this vulnerability, the existing authentication mechanism can be bypassed.
The specific flaw exists within mibFileServlet servlet, which listens on TCP ports 8080 and 8443 by default. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to delete any files accessible to SYSTEM.
