Description

ONTAP 9 versions prior to 9.9.1P18, 9.10.1P16, 9.11.1P13, 9.12.1P10

and 9.13.1P4 are susceptible to a vulnerability which could allow an

authenticated user with multiple remote accounts with differing roles to

perform actions via REST API beyond their intended privilege. Possible

actions include viewing limited configuration details and metrics or

modifying limited settings, some of which could result in a Denial of

Service (DoS).

How this vulnerability can be exploited

This issue can be reached over the network, attack complexity is low, an attacker needs low-level privileges on the target. No user interaction is required. The scope is unchanged, so the impact stays within the vulnerable component. Rated impact: confidentiality low, integrity low, availability high.
