An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-42000 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: PingFederate. 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-2021-42000/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-42000/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-42000","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-42000/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-42000","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f9mp-88cg-ffch"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Identity Management Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can reset other users' passwords if parallel reset flows are enabled in authentication policies, leading to account takeover.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"business_logic"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Ping Identity","cpe":[{"product":"pingfederate","vendor":"pingidentity"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-285","name":"Improper Authorization"}],"description":"When a password reset or password change flow with an authentication policy is configured and the adapter in the reset or change policy supports multiple parallel reset flows, an existing user can reset another existing users password.","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":"Business logic in PingFederate","id":"CVE-2021-42000","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"business_logic","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"PingID Desktop encryption libraries misconfiguration can lead to sensitive data exposure","id":"CVE-2021-42001"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"PingID Mac Login prior to 1.1 vulnerable to pre-computed dictionary attacks","id":"CVE-2021-41995"},"products":["PingFederate"],"published":"2022-02-10","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"The Authentication API in Ping Identity PingFederate before 10.3 mishandles certain aspects of external password management.","id":"CVE-2021-40329","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-09-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"PingFederate OAuth client_secret_jwt Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2023-40545","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-06"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Authentication Bypass via HTML Form \u0026 Identifier First Adapter","id":"CVE-2023-37283","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-25"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Misconfiguration of RSA padding for offline MFA in the PingID Adapter for PingFederate.","id":"CVE-2022-40722","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-25"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Admin Console Denial of Service via Java class enumeration","id":"CVE-2023-39219","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-25"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"XML external entity in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-41770","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-07"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Configuration-based MFA Bypass in PingID RADIUS PCV.","id":"CVE-2022-40723","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-25"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["Ping Identity"]},"summary":"Attackers can reset other users' passwords if parallel reset flows are enabled in authentication policies, leading to account takeover.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-42000/"}
