2. Introduction
Multiple vulnerabilities were privately reported to VMware. Patches and workarounds are available to address these vulnerabilities in affected VMware products.
3a. Host header tampering leading to server side request on internal restricted service (CVE-2021-22002)
Description
Known Attack Vectors
A malicious actor with network access to port 443 could tamper with host headers to facilitate access to the /cfg web app, in addition a malicious actor could access /cfg diagnostic endpoints without authentication.
Resolution
Fixes for CVE-2021-22002 are documented in the 'Fixed Version' column of the 'Response Matrix' below.
Workarounds
Workarounds for CVE-2021-22002 are documented in the 'Workarounds' column of the 'Response Matrix' below.
Additional Documentation
KB70911 "Cumulative Update for vRealize Automation 7.6" provides a link to download vRealize Automation 7.6 Patch 23, which includes a fix for this vulnerability.
Notes
[1] vRealize Automation 7.6 is affected since it uses embedded vIDM.
[2] vRealize Automation 8.x is unaffected since it does not use embedded vIDM. If vIDM has been deployed with vRA 8.x, fixes should be applied directly to vIDM.
Acknowledgements
VMware would like to thank Suleyman Bayir of Trendyol and Mehmet İnce of PRODAFT SARL for reporting this issue to us.
3b. Information Disclosure Vulnerability (CVE-2021-22003)
