CVE-2024-10082: high-severity vulnerability in Ericsson CodeChecker
Published
E-mail alert when it lands in KEV, gets a public PoC or its score goes up.
No sign of exploitation. No public exploitation artifact known so far.
CodeChecker's root user account can be hijacked by attackers who create accounts on external authentication services. An attacker who knows the root username can gain complete control over the application.
Authentication method confusion vulnerability (CWE-305, CWE-330) enables privilege escalation to the built-in root account. The weakness stems from improper credential generation (CWE-842) and inability to disable the root user; an attacker with external service access and knowledge of the root username can authenticate as root and obtain unrestricted access to all CodeChecker web interface functions.
In the same product, most dangerous first.
