Impact
The vulnerability allows an attacker to bypass TLS certificate validation under specific configuration scenarios, enabling the interception or manipulation of traffic between the Idira Privilege Cloud Connector and its server. This incomplete validation could lead to unauthorized access or data exposure. The weakness is identified as CWE‑295, which relates to improper validation of certificates or chains of trust.
Affected Systems
CyberArk Software’s PAM SH Connector, versions prior to 1.1.100504, are affected. The connector is part of the Idira Privilege Cloud Connector suite and may be deployed by organizations using this CyberArk product.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS score of 7.5 indicates a high severity. The EPSS score is not available, so the likelihood of exploitation cannot be precisely quantified. Because the issue is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, the vulnerability is not known to be actively exploited in the wild. The attack vector is inferred to involve a man‑in‑the‑middle or similar network-based exploitation due to the lack of full certificate validation.
