Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
RSA Archer before 6.6 P3 can expose backend database information to low-privileged users when certain application errors occur. This does not indicate data modification or service disruption, but it can reveal sensitive system details that help attackers plan further activity.
Executive priority
Treat as a moderate-priority remediation for RSA Archer environments. It is not described as actively exploited, but disclosed database details can materially improve follow-on attack planning against a governance, risk, and compliance platform.
Technical view
CVE-2019-3756 is a CWE-209 information disclosure issue in RSA Archer versions prior to 6.6 P3 (6.6.0.3). The CVSS 3.0 vector is AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, meaning authenticated low-privileged access may expose backend database information through UI error conditions.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to organizations running RSA Archer versions earlier than 6.6 P3. The attacker needs low-privileged RSA Archer access, so internet exposure matters mainly where user accounts can be obtained or misused.
Exploitation context
The provided sources do not show active exploitation, and the CVE is not listed as KEV. No public exploit details are included in the source bundle. Risk comes from sensitive database details being disclosed to authenticated low-privileged users.
Researcher notes
Evidence is limited to the CVE record and RSA reference. The sources identify the affected version boundary, CWE-209 class, privileges required, and confidentiality impact, but do not provide proof-of-concept details, specific exposed fields, or exploitation telemetry.
Mitigation direction
- Upgrade affected RSA Archer systems to 6.6 P3 (6.6.0.3) or later.
- Review the RSA advisory for any environment-specific remediation guidance.
- Restrict RSA Archer access to trusted users and managed networks.
- Monitor for unusual low-privileged user error activity in Archer.
Validation and detection
- Inventory RSA Archer instances and confirm installed versions.
- Verify no production instance is earlier than 6.6 P3.
- Review application logs for repeated error conditions from low-privileged users.
- Confirm error pages do not expose backend database information.

Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information
Generation of Error Message Containing Sensitive Information represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
