CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedApache Syncope versions 3.0.0-M0 to 4.1.1 are vulnerable to improper privilege management, allowing users to exploit REST API calls to self-assign administrative roles without proper authorization. This critical vulnerability can lead to unauthorized access and control over the system, potentially compromising sensitive data and operations. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize upgrading to versions 4.0.7 or 4.1.2 to mitigate this risk.
Original NVD Description
Improper Privilege Management vulnerability in Apache Syncope. When: * the all-Java user workflow adapter is configured, or * the Flowable user workflow adapter is configured, bearing a BPMN definition not requiring admin approval for user self registration of self update requests the following scenario could happen. A REST API call can allow the user to grant themselves one or more of defined Roles, thus gaining their Entitlements and becoming in fact an administrator; the actual Entitlements gained depend on the Roles that are effectively defined on the specific Syncope deployment. This issue affects Apache Syncope: from 3.0.0-M0 through 3.0.16, from 4.0.0-M0 Through 4.0.6, from 4.1.0-M0 through 4.1.1. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.0.7 / 4.1.2, which fix this issue.
