Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CVE-2015-3190 is an open redirect in the Cloud Foundry UAA logout link. An attacker could make a trusted logout URL send a user to a malicious webpage, mainly supporting phishing or credential-theft scenarios rather than direct server compromise.
Executive priority
Treat this as a phishing-enablement issue for legacy Cloud Foundry identity services. Prioritize if UAA is internet-facing, used by administrators, or tied to sensitive applications.
Technical view
Affected versions include Cloud Foundry Runtime cf-release v209 or earlier, UAA Standalone 2.2.6 or earlier, and Pivotal Cloud Foundry Runtime 1.4.5 or earlier. The issue is a redirect parameter accepted by the UAA logout link that can point users to attacker-controlled pages.
Likely exposure
Exposure is most likely in legacy Cloud Foundry or Pivotal Cloud Foundry environments still running the listed affected UAA or runtime versions. Current exposure cannot be inferred from the source bundle without asset inventory.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not cite active exploitation, and CISA KEV status is false. The plausible abuse case is social engineering: using a trusted UAA logout URL to redirect users to a malicious page.
Researcher notes
Evidence is limited to a high-level CVE description and vendor reference. No CVSS score, CWE, exploit evidence, or fixed release details are provided in the bundle, so remediation should be confirmed against vendor guidance.
Mitigation direction
- Inventory Cloud Foundry Runtime, UAA Standalone, and PCF Runtime versions.
- Check the Pivotal advisory for fixed versions and official remediation.
- Plan upgrades beyond the listed affected versions under vendor guidance.
- Review identity and logout flows for untrusted external redirect behavior.
Validation and detection
- Confirm whether any deployed version matches the affected version ranges.
- Safely test that UAA logout cannot redirect to untrusted external domains.
- Review available logs for unusual logout redirects to external sites.
- Document whether the vulnerable UAA logout path is internet-accessible.
