CVE-2019-11279
CF UAA versions prior to 74.1.0 can request scopes for a client that shouldn't be allowed by submitting an array of requested scopes.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.33%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
CF UAA versions prior to 74.1.0 can request scopes for a client that shouldn't be allowed by submitting an array of requested scopes. A remote malicious user can escalate their own privileges to any scope, allowing them to take control of UAA and the resources it controls.
