CVE-2018-11051: RSA Certificate Manager Path Traversal Vulnerability

RSA Certificate Manager Versions 6.9 build 560 through 6.9 build 564 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the RSA CMP Enroll Server and the RSA REST Enroll Server. A remote unauthenticated attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability by manipulating input parameters of the application to gain unauthorized read access to the files stored on the server filesystem, with the privileges of the running web application.

Security readout for executives and security teams

RSA Certificate Manager 6.9 builds 560 through 564 can let an unauthenticated remote attacker read files from the server by abusing path handling in enrollment services. The main business risk is exposure of sensitive local files available to the web application account. Exposure is limited to RSA Certificate Manager deployments running version 6.9 build 560 through build 564 with the affected enrollment servers present or reachable. Treat as high priority where RSA Certificate Manager enrollment services are exposed. The vulnerability affects confidentiality, not system takeover per the sources, but file disclosure from certificate management infrastructure can create downstream security risk. Mitigation focus: Check RSA DSA-2018-122 or vendor guidance for supported remediation for affected builds.; Prioritize removing 6.9 build 560-564 instances from affected exposure.; Restrict enrollment server access to trusted networks while remediation is planned..
