Detailsinfo
A vulnerability was found in Black Duck Coverity up to 2024.12.1/2025.3.1/2025.6.3/2025.9.2/2025.12.0. It has been classified as critical. This affects an unknown function of the file /token of the component API Endpoint. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a authorization vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-639. The system's authorization functionality does not prevent one user from gaining access to another user's data or record by modifying the key value identifying the data. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
Vulnerable versions of Coverity Connect lack an error handler in the authentication logic for command line tooling that makes it vulnerable to an authentication bypass. A malicious actor with access to the /token API endpoint that either knows or guesses a valid username, can use this in a specially crafted HTTP request to bypass authentication. Successful exploitation allows the malicious actor to assume all roles and privileges granted to the valid user’s Coverity Connect account.
