VMware Aria Operations for Logs 8.10.2 / 8.12 Deserialization (VMSA-2023-0021)

high Nessus Plugin ID 183916

Synopsis

VMware Aria Operations running on the remote host is affected by a deserialization vulnerability.

Description

The version of VMware Aria Operations for Logs (formerly VMware vRealize Log Insight) running on the remote host is 8.10.2 or 8.12. It is, therefore, affected by a deserialization vulnerability. An unauthenticated, remote attacker with non-administrative access to the local system can trigger the deserialization of data which could result in authentication bypass.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to VMware Aria Operations version 8.14 or later.
