CVE-2014-9768: IBM Tivoli NetView Access Services (NVAS) allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges by entering...

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue concerns IBM Tivoli NetView Access Services, where an authenticated remote user may gain extra privileges through an administrative workflow. The public record is sparse, and the vendor says proper configuration and available NVAS security controls mitigate the issue. Exposure appears limited to organizations running IBM Tivoli NetView Access Services with remote authenticated access. The bundle does not identify affected versions or CPEs, so inventory confirmation is required. Prioritize as an exposure and configuration review for mainframe environments using NVAS. It is not documented as actively exploited, but privilege issues in core operations systems can have high business impact. Mitigation focus: Review vendor NVAS security-control guidance and apply recommended configuration controls.; Restrict NVAS access to authorized users and trusted network paths.; Audit privileged transaction access and administrative command permissions..
