The SecureSphere Operations Manager (SOM) Management Server in Imperva SecureSphere 9.0.0.5 allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information by leveraging the presence of (1) a session ID in the jsessionid field to secsphLogin.jsp or (2) credentials in the j_password parameter to j_acegi_security_check, and reading (a) web-server access logs, (b) web-server Referer logs, or (c) the browser history.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2013-4092 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2013-4092. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
