FlexNet Publisher lmadmin Rogue Vendor Daemon Vulnerability

A remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability was identified in the FlexNet Publisher lmadmin web user interface. This vulnerability is addressed in the FlexNet Publisher 2023 R2 (11.19.4.0) release.

FlexNet Publisher lmadmin SOAP Authentication Bypass Vulnerability

A security vulnerability has been identified in FlexNet Publisher lmadmin. The vulnerability exists in a SOAP handler, where a hardcoded authentication bypass could allow an unauthenticated user to obtain a privileged administrator session without providing valid credentials.

Local privilege escalation in FlexNet Publisher

A misconfiguration in lmadmin.exe of FlexNet Publisher versions prior to 2024 R1 (11.19.6.0) allows the OpenSSL configuration file to load from a non-existent directory. An unauthorized, locally authenticated user with low privileges can potentially create the directory and load a specially crafted openssl.conf file leading to the execution of a malicious DLL (Dynamic-Link Library) with elevated privileges.

FlexNet Publisher 11.12.1 - Cross-Site Request Forgery (Add Local Admin)

FlexNet Publisher 11.12.1 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability that allows attackers to create administrative user accounts without authentication. Attackers can craft a malicious HTML form to trick authenticated users into submitting a request that creates a new local admin account with a predefined password.

A Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability was discovered in FlexNet Publisher's lmadmin 11.16.5, when doing a crafted POST request on lmadmin using the web-based tool.

An information disclosure vulnerability has been identified in FlexNet Publisher lmadmin.exe 11.14.0.2. The web portal link can be used to access to system files or other important files on the system.

A Denial of Service vulnerability has been identified in FlexNet Publisher's lmadmin.exe version 11.16.6. A certain message protocol can be exploited to cause lmadmin to crash.

A Denial of Service vulnerability related to stack exhaustion has been identified in FlexNet Publisher lmadmin.exe 11.16.2. Because the message reading function calls itself recursively given a certain condition in the received message, an unauthenticated remote attacker can repeatedly send messages of that type to cause a stack exhaustion condition.

A Denial of Service vulnerability related to command handling has been identified in FlexNet Publisher lmadmin.exe version 11.16.2. The message reading function used in lmadmin.exe can, given a certain message, call itself again and then wait for a further message. With a particular flag set in the original message, but no second message received, the function eventually return an unexpected value which leads to an exception being thrown. The end result can be process termination.

A Denial of Service vulnerability related to adding an item to a list in lmgrd and vendor daemon components of FlexNet Publisher version 11.16.1.0 and earlier allows a remote attacker to send a combination of messages to lmgrd or the vendor daemon, causing the heartbeat between lmgrd and the vendor daemon to stop, and the vendor daemon to shut down.

A Remote Code Execution vulnerability in lmgrd and vendor daemon components of FlexNet Publisher version 11.16.1.0 and earlier could allow a remote attacker to corrupt the memory by allocating / deallocating memory, loading lmgrd or the vendor daemon and causing the heartbeat between lmgrd and the vendor daemon to stop. This would force the vendor daemon to shut down. No exploit of this vulnerability has been demonstrated.

A Denial of Service vulnerability related to message decoding in lmgrd and vendor daemon components of FlexNet Publisher version 11.16.1.0 and earlier allows a remote attacker to send a combination of messages to lmgrd or the vendor daemon, causing the heartbeat between lmgrd and the vendor daemon to stop, and the vendor daemon to shut down.

A Denial of Service vulnerability related to preemptive item deletion in lmgrd and vendor daemon components of FlexNet Publisher version 11.16.1.0 and earlier allows a remote attacker to send a combination of messages to lmgrd or the vendor daemon, causing the heartbeat between lmgrd and the vendor daemon to stop, and the vendor daemon to shut down.
