MetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Dell EMC AppSync versions 3.9 to 4.3
Description The issue allows an adjacent unauthenticated attacker to potentially exploit the vulnerability, leading to password brute-forcing. This can result in account takeover if weak passwords are used by users. The vulnerability can be exploited from both the UI and CLI.
Recommendations For Dell EMC AppSync versions 3.9 to 4.3, consider implementing additional security measures to restrict excessive authentication attempts, such as rate limiting or IP blocking, until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, enforce strong password policies to minimize the risk of account takeover due to weak passwords.
