An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-44526 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Zohocorp Manageengine Servicedesk Plus. 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-2021-44526/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-44526/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-44526","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-44526/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-44526","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mx2m-92ch-fwmw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"ITSM web application","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication in specific admin configurations of Zoho ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus, gaining unauthorized access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"manageengine_servicedesk_plus","vendor":"zohocorp"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Zoho ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus before 12003 allows authentication bypass in certain admin configurations.","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":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-44526","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"zohocorp:manageengine_servicedesk_plus","products":["zohocorp:manageengine_servicedesk_plus"],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in UniFi Switches","id":"CVE-2021-44527"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-44525"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-12-23","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Zoho ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2021-44077","kev_date_added":"2021-12-01","published":"2021-11-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Zoho ManageEngine ServiceDesk Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2021-37415","kev_date_added":"2021-12-01","published":"2021-09-01"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Zoho ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus (SDP) File Upload","id":"CVE-2019-8394","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2019-02-17"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-8395","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-02-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-35682","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-13"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"XML external entity in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-9362","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-25"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication in specific admin configurations of Zoho ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus, gaining unauthorized access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-44526/"}
