McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator Multiple Vulnerabilities (SB10387)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 166139

Synopsis

A security management application running on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities

Description

The instance of McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following:

- An External XML entity (XXE) vulnerability in ePO prior to 5.10 Update 14 can lead to an unauthenticated remote attacker to potentially trigger a Server Side Request Forgery attack. This can be exploited by mimicking the Agent Handler call to ePO and passing the carefully constructed XML file through the API. (CVE-2022-3338)

- A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in ePO prior to 5.10 Update 14 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to potentially obtain access to an ePO administrator's session by convincing the authenticated ePO administrator to click on a carefully crafted link. This would lead to limited access to sensitive information and limited ability to alter some information in ePO. (CVE-2022-3339)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version

Solution

Upgrade to McAfee ePO version 5.10.0 Update 14 or later.
