OpenVAS Manager 3.0 before 3.0.7 and 4.0 before 4.0.4 allows remote attackers to bypass the OMP authentication restrictions and execute OMP commands via a crafted OMP request for version information, which causes the state to be set to CLIENT_AUTHENTIC, as demonstrated by the omp_xml_handle_end_element function in omp.c.

Security readout for executives and security teams

OpenVAS Manager had an authentication bypass that could let a remote attacker send manager protocol commands without properly logging in. For organizations still running the old affected branches, this could undermine the security scanner management plane. The provided sources name fixed OpenVAS Manager versions but do not provide CVSS scoring or confirmed exploitation. Exposure is most likely in legacy OpenVAS Manager 3.0.x or 4.0.x deployments, especially where the OMP management interface is reachable by untrusted networks. Modern or upgraded deployments are not identified as affected in the provided sources. Prioritize remediation if legacy OpenVAS Manager is still used, because the flaw affects authentication on a security management system. If the organization has migrated away from these versions, priority is mainly confirmation and cleanup. Mitigation focus: Upgrade OpenVAS Manager 3.0 deployments to 3.0.7 or later.; Upgrade OpenVAS Manager 4.0 deployments to 4.0.4 or later.; Retire unsupported legacy OpenVAS Manager instances where upgrade is not practical..
