Category:Web application abuses
Title:Kentico CMS <= 12.0.14 RCE Vulnerability
Summary:Kentico CMS is prone to a remote code execution (RCE); vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
Kentico CMS is prone to a remote code execution (RCE)
vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
Due to a failure to validate security headers, it's possible
for a specially crafted request to the staging service to bypass initial authentication and
proceed to deserialize user-controlled .NET object input. This deserialization then leads to
unauthenticated remote code execution on the server where the Kentico instance is hosted.

Vulnerability Impact:
Successful exploitation would allow an attacker to execute
arbitrary code on the target system.

Affected Software/OS:
Kentico CMS prior to version 12.0.15.

This vulnerability only exists if the Staging Service authentication is not set to X.509.

Solution:
Update to version 12.0.15 or later.

Note: Please create an override for this result if the hotfix has been applied.

CVSS Score:
7.5
