Who is Vulnerable? | |
Vulnerability Description | HP Operations Manager is a consolidated event and performance management console that correlates infrastructure, network and end-user experience events across an IT infrastructure. It monitors both physical and virtual servers to identify the root cause of event storms, allowing faster time to resolution at lower cost. It was formerly called OpenView Operations and is built upon the foundation of HP Network Node Manager (NNM). An unauthorized file upload vulnerability exists in HP Operations Manager. The vulnerability is due to insufficient access control within the Apache Tomcat Manager component. A remote attacker can leverage this vulnerability by sending a crafted HTTP request to /manager/html/upload using a set of default credentials. Once authenticated, the attacker can upload a malicious web application to a vulnerable system. |
This protection will detect and block malformed HTTP requests sent to the vulnerable server.
