April 13, 2011

-- CVE ID:
CVE-2011-1655

-- CVSS:
10, (AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C)

CA

-- Affected Products:

-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of CA Total Defense Suite. Authentication is
not required to exploit this vulnerability. 

The specific flaw exists within the management.asmx module of the
Management Web Service. This process responds to SOAP 1.2 requests on
port 34444 for HTTP and port 34443 for HTTPS. Due to a flaw in the
implementation of the getDBConfigSettings method, it is possible for an
unauthenticated user to obtain the server's database credentials, which
are transmitted via plaintext. Given the database credentials, it is
trivial for a remote user to authenticate to the server and execute
arbitrary code under the context of the database administrator.

-- Vendor Response:
CA has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More
details can be found at:
