Unauthenticated user ID disclosure via authentication discrepancy
Published Jan 30, 2025 · Updated Feb 5, 2025
Information disclosure in Symantec Privileged Access Management allows remote attackers to learn PAM user IDs through a specific authentication strategy. Broadcom has not published the affected authentication path, request field, or response discrepancy that exposes the identifiers. Exploitation requires adjacent-network reachability but no account or user interaction, and the reported consequence is limited to identifier disclosure.
