Vulnerabilities
---------------

## Java RMI Remote Code Execution (CVE-2016-9498)
ManageEngine Applications Manager allow unserialization of unsafe Java objects. 
The vulnerability can be exploited by remote user without authentication and it 
allows to execute remote code compromising the application as well as the 
operating system. As Application Manager's RMI registry is running with 
privileges of system administrator, by exploiting this vulnerability an 
attacker gains highest privileges on the underlying operating system.

## SQL Injection (CVE-2016-9488)
An unauthenticated user is able to access the URL /servlet/MenuHandlerServlet, 
which is vulnerable to SQL injection. Note that among others, an attacker is 
able to extract users' password hashes, which are MD5 hashes without salt. 
Depending on used database type and its configuration, an adversary can also 
execute operating system commands using SQL queries.

## Authorization Bypass / Privilege Escalation (CVE-2016-9489)
Authenticated user is able to alter all of their own properties, including own 
group, i.e. changing their group to one with higher privileges like "ADMIN". A 
user is also able to change properties of another user, e.g. change another 
user's password.

## Reflected Cross-Site Scripting (CVE-2016-9490)
Applications Manager is prone to Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in 
parameter LIMIT, in URL path /DiagAlertAction.do?REQTYPE=AJAX&LIMIT=1233. Note 
that URL is also available without authentication.

## XML eXternal Entity (CVE-2016-9491)
The vulnerability allows authenticated user, who is able to access /register.do 
page (most likely limited to administrator), to browse the filesystem and read 
the system files, including Applications Manager configuration, stored private 
keys, etc. By default Application Manager is running with administrative 
privileges, therefore it is possible to access every directory on the 
underlying operating system.
