Authenticated privilege escalation via default permissions
Published Jun 16, 2023 · Updated Dec 17, 2024
Privilege escalation in HPE Integrity MC990 X Server RMC Firmware before 1.2.7 allows remote authenticated users to gain elevated privileges. HPE attributes the flaw to an inadequate default configuration but has not disclosed which RMC permissions are overbroad or how they are exercised. Access requires valid low-privilege credentials over the network; HPE has not disclosed the resulting privilege level or affected management functions.
