Unauthorized access to installer credential database
Published Apr 21, 2025 · Updated Apr 21, 2025
Improper authorization in Saviynt OVA based Connect allows remote attackers on the customer network to access its local credential database. Saviynt has not published the affected request path or the authorization check that permits access to the database, whose installer credentials use weak hashes. Exploitation requires adjacent network access and specific undisclosed conditions; it exposes stored credentials and can affect database integrity or service availability.
