What it is about

Das SonicWall Global Management System (GMS) dient der zentralen Verwaltung von SonicWall Firewalls. Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in SonicWall GMS ausnutzen, um seine Privilegien zu erhöhen, beliebigen Code – einschließlich Code mit Root-Rechten – auszuführen, Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, Daten zu manipulieren, vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen und Cross-Site-Scripting-Angriffe durchzuführen.

Under what conditions?

The BSI does not name any particular preconditions. Exploitable remotely according to the BSI.

What can happen in the worst case

An attacker could use the vulnerability to

  • seine Privilegien zu erhöhen
  • beliebigen Code – einschließlich Code mit Root-Rechten – auszuführen
  • Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen
  • Daten zu manipulieren
  • vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen
  • Cross-Site-Scripting-Angriffe durchzuführen

Am I affected?

  • SonicWall GMS <9.5.2

The installed version is usually shown under “Help → About” or in the device’s admin interface.
