Original Description
Fortra (formerly, HelpSystems) GoAnywhere MFT suffers from a pre-authentication command injection vulnerability in the License Response Servlet due to deserializing an arbitrary attacker-controlled object.
A deserialization vulnerability in the License Servlet of Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT allows an actor with a validly forged license response signature to deserialize an arbitrary actor-controlled object, possibly leading to command injection.
Fortra BoKS Manager contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the client upgrade and patch tooling for legacy tar-based client installations. A malicious or compromised legacy tar-installed client selected for upgrade or patching may be able to cause commands to be executed on the BoKS Master during client version handling.
Fortra's Core Privileged Access Manager (BoKS) contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the boksautoregisterd service. A remote attacker with network access to the service may be able to cause commands to be executed with the privileges of the service during the autoregistration processing.
Fortra File Integrity Monitoring (FIM), formerly Tripwire Enterprise, versions prior to 9.4.0 may assign incorrect or elevated effective permissions to users created by the tetool import command while FIM is running, particularly when the import also creates or changes roles or role-permission relationships.
Fortra File Integrity Monitoring (FIM), formerly Tripwire Enterprise, versions prior to 9.4.0.1 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Asset View UI component. An authenticated user with sufficient privileges to create or modify affected node or database configuration fields could store script content that may be rendered as HTML instead of safely escaped text when the affected Asset View UI content is displayed.
A SQL Injection vulnerability in Fortra FileCatalyst Workflow allows an attacker to modify application data. Likely impacts include creation of administrative users and deletion or modification of data in the application database. Data exfiltration via SQL injection is not possible using this vulnerability. Successful unauthenticated exploitation requires a Workflow system with anonymous access enabled, otherwise an authenticated user is required. This issue affects all versions of FileCatalyst Workflow from 5.1.6 Build 135 and earlier.
Cobalt Strike 4.7.1 fails to properly escape HTML tags when they are displayed on Swing components. By injecting crafted HTML code, it is possible to remotely execute code in the Cobalt Strike UI.
Fortra Cobalt Strike contains a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Teamserver that would allow an attacker to set a malformed username in the Beacon configuration, allowing them to execute code remotely.
HTML injection is possible in system generated emails in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to 7.10.0.
Note: The title, details, and description of this CVE were corrected post-publishing.
The login limit is not enforced on the SFTP service of Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to 7.10.0 if the Web User attempting to be logged in to is configured to log in with an SSH Key, making the SSH key vulnerable to being guessed via Brute Force.
Encrypted values in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to version 7.10.0 and GoAnywhere Agents prior to version 2.2.0 utilize a static IV which allows admin users to brute-force decryption of data.
An improper session timeout issue in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to version 7.10.0 results in SAML configured Web Users being redirected to the regular login page instead of the SAML login page.
User‑Controlled HTTP Header in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to version 7.10.0 allows attackers to trigger a DNS lookup, as well as DNS Rebinding and Information Disclosure.
An Improper Access Control in the SFTP service in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to version 7.9.0 allows Web Users with an Authentication Alias and a valid SSH key but limited to Password authentication for SFTP to still login using their SSH key.
Insecure defaults in the Server Agent component of Fortra's Core Privileged Access Manager (BoKS) can result in the selection of weak password hash algorithms. This issue affects BoKS Server Agent 9.0 instances that support yescrypt and are running in a BoKS 8.1 domain.
A directory traversal within the ‘ftpservlet’ of the FileCatalyst Workflow Web Portal allows files to be uploaded outside of the intended ‘uploadtemp’ directory with a specially crafted POST request. In situations where a file is successfully uploaded to web portal’s DocumentRoot, specially crafted JSP files could be used to execute code, including web shells.
A binary in the BoKS Server Agent component of Fortra's Core Privileged Access Manager (BoKS) on versions 7.2.0 (up to 7.2.0.17), 8.1.0 (up to 8.1.0.22), 8.1.1 (up to 8.1.1.7), 9.0.0 (up to 9.0.0.1) and also legacy tar installs of BoKS 7.2 without hotfix #0474 on Linux, AIX, and Solaris allows low privilege local users to dump data from the cache.
The default credentials for the setup HSQL database (HSQLDB) for FileCatalyst Workflow are published in a vendor knowledgebase article. Misuse of these credentials could lead to a compromise of confidentiality, integrity, or availability of the software.
The HSQLDB is only included to facilitate installation, has been deprecated, and is not intended for production use per vendor guides. However, users who have not configured FileCatalyst Workflow to use an alternative database per recommendations are vulnerable to attack from any source that can reach the HSQLDB.
An information-disclosure vulnerability exists in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT application prior to version 7.7.0 that allows external access to the resources in certain admin root folders.
Improper Access Control issue in the Workflow component of Fortra's FileCatalyst allows unauthenticated users to upload arbitrary files via the order forms page.
Broken access control in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to 7.8.1 allows an attacker to create a denial of service situation when configured to use GoAnywhere One-Time Password (GOTP) email two-factor authentication (2FA) and the user has not set an email address. In this scenario, the attacker may enter the email address of a known user when prompted and the user will be disabled if that user has configured GOTP.
Authentication bypass in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to 7.4.1 allows an unauthorized user to create an admin user via the administration portal.
Missing input validation in certain features of the Web Client of Fortra's GoAnywhere prior to version 7.8.0 allows an attacker with permission to trigger emails to insert arbitrary HTML or JavaScript into an email.
