I’m Matt Dunn, lead penetration tester at Raxis, and I’ve uncovered a couple more ManageEngine vulnerabilities you should know about if your company is using the platform.
Summary
I discovered two instances in ManageEngine Remote Access Plus where a user with Guest permissions can access administrative details of the installation. In each case, an authenticated ‘Guest’ user can make a direct request to the /dcapi/ API endpoint to retrieve information. This allows the ‘Guest’ user to discover information about the connected Domains as well as the License information for the installation.
Proof of Concept
The two vulnerabilities are similar in that they allow a user with ‘Guest’ level permissions to access details about the installation. Each CVE refers to a specific piece of information that the user can retrieve, as detailed below:
CVE-2022-26653 – The ‘Guest’ user can retrieve details of connected Domains.
CVE-2022-26777 – The ‘Guest’ user can retrieve details about the installation’s License.
The user with ‘Guest’ permissions can access all the Domain’s details, including the connected Domain Controller, the account used for authentication, and when it was last updated, as shown here:
Similarly, the ‘Guest’ user can access all the License information, including the amount of users, amount of managed systems, who the license is for, and the exact build number, as shown below:
