Descriptions

A vulnerability exists in the HTTP web interface where the web interface does not sufficiently verify if a well-formed, valid, consistent request was intentionally provided by the user who submitted the request. This cause a Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF), which if exploited could lead an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the web application and perform an unwanted operation on it without the knowledge of the legitimate user. An attacker, who successfully makes an MSM user who has already established a session to MSM web interface clicks a forged link to the MSM web interface, e.g., link is sent per E-Mail, could perform harmful command on MSM through its web server interface. This issue affects: Hitachi Energy MSM V2.2 and prior versions.

Se presenta una vulnerabilidad en la interfaz web HTTP en la que la interfaz web no comprueba suficientemente si una petición bien formada, válida y coherente fue proporcionada intencionalmente por el usuario que envió la petición. Esto causa una vulnerabilidad de tipo Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF), que si es explotada podría conllevar a un atacante a obtener acceso no autorizado a la aplicación web y llevar a cabo una operación no deseada en ella sin el conocimiento del usuario legítimo. Un atacante, que logra que un usuario de MSM que ya ha establecido una sesión con la interfaz web de MSM haga clic en un enlace falsificado a la interfaz web de MSM, por ejemplo, el enlace es enviado por correo electrónico, podría llevar a cabo un comando dañino en MSM mediante su interfaz de servidor web. Este problema afecta a: Hitachi Energy MSM versiones V2.2 y versiones anteriores
