A critical vulnerability in ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus, an Active Directory password-reset solution, could allow attackers to remotely execute commands with system level privileges on the target Windows host.
ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus is developed by ManageEngine, a division of Zoho Corporation, a software development company that focuses on web-based business tools and information technology.
"ADSelfService Plus supports self-service password reset for WFH and remote users by enabling users to reset Windows password from their own machines and updating the cached credentials through a VPN client," the company touts.
"A security alert can/will be triggered when 'an unauthenticated attacker having physical access to the host issues a self-signed SSLcertificate to the client'. Or, 'a self-signed SSLcertificate is configured on ADSelfService Plus server'," he noted.
Admins are advised to upgrade to ADSelfService Plus build 6003, which contains the complete security fix.
