CVE-2021-22017

Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.3)⚠ Explotación activa

Rhttproxy as used in vCenter Server contains a vulnerability due to improper implementation of URI normalization. A malicious actor with network access to port 443 on vCenter Server may exploit this issue to bypass proxy leading to internal endpoints being accessed.

CVSS

Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).

CISA KEV — explotada activamente

🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK

Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.

Acceso remoto sin autenticación (PR:N) a aplicación web expuesta vCenter Server explotando normalización URI deficiente (T1190). Bypass de proxy permite acceso a endpoints internos (T1090.004, SSRF). Potencial exposición de datos internos/credenciales del servidor.

Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
