Description

Tokens issued to a low-privileged user are not sufficiently restricted, allowing them to be used to access product-level Admin REST APIs. Exploitation of this vulnerability allows a low-privileged user to invoke the Admin REST APIs of WSO2 products, potentially leading to full administrative account takeover. This requires the attacker to already possess a low-privileged user account and be able to obtain a valid token for it.

Affected configurations

• wso2 api control plane (>= 4.5.0 < 4.5.0.49) • wso2 api control plane (>= 4.6.0 < 4.6.0.13) • wso2 api manager (>= 4.0.0 < 4.0.0.384) • wso2 api manager (>= 4.1.0 < 4.1.0.248) • wso2 api manager (>= 4.2.0 < 4.2.0.188) • wso2 api manager (>= 4.3.0 < 4.3.0.99) • wso2 api manager (>= 4.4.0 < 4.4.0.63) • wso2 api manager (>= 4.5.0 < 4.5.0.48) • wso2 api manager (>= 4.6.0 < 4.6.0.12) • wso2 traffic manager (>= 4.5.0 < 4.5.0.47) • wso2 traffic manager (>= 4.6.0 < 4.6.0.12) • wso2 universal gateway (>= 4.5.0 < 4.5.0.48) • wso2 universal gateway (>= 4.6.0 < 4.6.0.12)
