Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-3597 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: McAfee Network Security Manager (NSM). No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-3597/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-3597/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-3597","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-3597/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-3597","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g6rf-q96g-qx69"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Network Security Manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can gain administrator rights in McAfee Network Security Manager due to improper handling of expired GUI sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trellix","cpe":[{"product":"network_security_manager","vendor":"mcafee"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Authentication Bypass vulnerability in McAfee Network Security Manager (NSM) 9.1 \u003c 9.1.7.75.2 and 9.2 \u003c 9.2.7.31 (9.2 Update 2) allows unauthenticated users to gain administrator rights via incorrect handling of expired GUI sessions.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Authentication bypass in McAfee Network Security Manager 9.x","id":"CVE-2019-3597","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"McAfee Agent update fixes a vulnerability in handling UDP requests","id":"CVE-2019-3598"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"DLP Endpoint ePO extension not sanitizing CSV exports","id":"CVE-2019-3595"},"products":["McAfee Network Security Manager (NSM)"],"published":"2019-03-26","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) (aka Session Riding) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3965","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-04"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Infrastructure-based foot printing vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3972","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-03"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Abuse of communication channels vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3969","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-04"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Cryptanalysis vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3971","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-04"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Data leakage when in an MDR pair by McAfee Network Security Manager 9.x","id":"CVE-2019-3606","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-26"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-2390","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-08-29"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["McAfee LLC"]},"summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can gain administrator rights in McAfee Network Security Manager due to improper handling of expired GUI sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-3597/"}
