CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Cloud Foundry UAA, versions 60 prior to 66.0, contain an authorization logic error. In environments with multiple identity providers that contain accounts across identity providers with the same username, a remote authenticated user with access to one of these accounts may be able to obtain a token for an account of the same username in the other identity provider.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2018-15754 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
