Authenticated account disclosure via direct object reference
Published Jul 15, 2024 · Updated Dec 3, 2024
Data disclosure in Symantec Privileged Access Management 3.4.6 and 4.1.0 through 4.1.7 allows remote authenticated users to read account data. Broadcom has not published the affected endpoint or the faulty object-authorization operation that exposes other PAM users and their group memberships. A valid low-privileged PAM account and adjacent network access are required; the reported consequence is limited to confidentiality.
