CVE-2016-6813
Apache CloudStack 4.1 to 4.8.1.0 and 4.9.0.0 contain an API call designed to allow a user to register for the developer API.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (5.59%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Apache CloudStack 4.1 to 4.8.1.0 and 4.9.0.0 contain an API call designed to allow a user to register for the developer API. If a malicious user is able to determine the ID of another (non-"root") CloudStack user, the malicious user may be able to reset the API keys for the other user, in turn accessing their account and resources.
