Security readout for executives and security teams
This is an authenticated cross-site scripting issue in EMC RSA Certificate Manager and RSA Registration Manager. A logged-in user could inject script or HTML through the CMP shared secret parameter. For executives, the concern is compromise of users who access certificate management interfaces, not direct unauthenticated takeover based on the available sources. Exposure is likely limited to organizations still running RCM or RRM versions earlier than 6.9 build 558 with authenticated access to the affected web interface. Internet exposure would raise concern, but the sources do not state whether deployments are typically public-facing. Treat as a legacy product risk requiring inventory-driven action. It is not KEV-listed and requires authentication, but certificate management systems are sensitive; prioritize remediation if affected versions remain in production or are reachable by broad user groups. Mitigation focus: Upgrade RCM and RRM to 6.9 build 558 or later where applicable.; Review RSA advisory ESA-2015-014 for vendor-specific remediation details.; Restrict access to certificate management interfaces to trusted networks and users..
