CVE-2022-30358Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Account takeover via unauthorized password change

Published Oct 25, 2024 · Updated Oct 29, 2024

Incorrect authorization in OvalEdge 5.2.8.0 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to take over accounts by changing passwords. The /user/updatePassword handler accepts userId and newPsw in a POST request and changes the identified account's password without enforcing authorization to that account. Any authenticated account can target another user ID, causing loss of control over that account and access under its privileges.
