The product uses a transmission protocol that does not include a mechanism for verifying the integrity of the data during transmission, such as a checksum.
ast-cli downloads two helper binaries, the Vorpal ASCA real-time engine and the SCA Resolver, from "download.checkmarx.com" as part of its auto-update flow, triggered by the Checkmarx’s "VSCode/JetBrains" extensions and by cx scan "sca-realtime". Prior to the fix, the downloaded archive was not verified against a checksum before extraction and execution. An attacker able to substitute the served archive could deliver an arbitrary binary that ast-cli would extract and execute the contents of the archive, since no integrity check was performed on the download. Successful exploitation requires compromising "download.checkmarx.com" and replacing the served archive with one containing an attacker-controlled binary. If the served archive had been replaced that way, any developer machine or CI pipeline invoking ASCA (via Checkmarx's VSCode/JetBrains extensions) or cx scan "sca-realtime" on an affected version would have extracted and executed that binary in place of the intended download. The download is now verified against a published SHA-256 checksum before extraction.
A missing integrity verification vulnerability in the client agent software of HPE Networking ClearPass Policy Manager could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to introduce untrusted code. Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected client system.
A missing integrity verification vulnerability exists in the OnGuard agent of ClearPass Policy Manager. Successful exploitation could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected endpoint with the elevated privileges of the agent.
