Descriptions

In OpenMNS Horizon 31.0.8 and versions earlier than 32.0.2 and related Meridian versions, any user that has the ROLE_FILESYSTEM_EDITOR can easily escalate their privileges to ROLE_ADMIN or any other role. The solution is to upgrade to Meridian 2023.1.5 or Horizon 32.0.2 or newer. Meridian and Horizon installation instructions state that they are intended for installation within an organization's private networks and should not be directly accessible from the Internet. OpenNMS thanks Erik Wynter for reporting this issue.

En OpenNMS Horizon 31.0.8 y versiones anteriores a 32.0.2 y versiones Meridian relacionadas, cualquier usuario que tenga el ROLE_FILESYSTEM_EDITOR puede escalar fácilmente sus privilegios a ROLE_ADMIN o cualquier otro rol. La solución es actualizar a Meridian 2023.1.5 u Horizon 32.0.2 o posterior. Las instrucciones de instalación de Meridian y Horizon indican que están pensadas para su instalación dentro de las redes privadas de una organización y que no se debe acceder a ellas directamente desde Internet. OpenNMS da las gracias a Erik Wynter por informar de este problema.
