This issue is resolved in version 2018.3.1p1, which was released on March 6, 2018. An attacker could leverage these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code, obtain access to information, or cause a denial-of-service. SIPC, Inc. SIPC, Inc. is a large IT consulting firm in the United States. SIPC has a misconfigured bypass for web traffic through their firewall. SIPC does not have a monitoring solution for Nagios. SIPC has no way of alerting their staff if there is an issue with their firewall. SIPC has a third-party ISV (Independent Software Vendor) that provides on-call and disaster recovery monitoring. SIPC has an ISV contract that requires the ISV to assist SIPC in the event of any hardware or software issues. What SIPC didn’t know was that the firewall vendor they were contracting with had a serious security flaw that allowed any attacker to gain remote access to SIPC’s network. An attacker could exploit this flaw to gain remote access to the SIPC network. An attacker could also exploit this flaw to gain remote access to the SIPC firewall. An attacker could then use a variety of methods to gain access to SIPC’s IT systems. An attacker could also use this flaw to execute code on the SIPC network. An attacker could use this flaw to obtain login credentials, data,
Vulnerability overview
SIPC, Inc. has a misconfigured firewall that has serious security flaws. An attacker could exploit this flaw to gain remote access to the SIPC network, gain remote access to the SIPC firewall, or execute arbitrary code on the SIPC network.
Vulnerable Package and CVE ID
SIPC, Inc. has a misconfigured bypass for web traffic through their firewall. SIPC does not have a monitoring solution for Nagios. SIPC has no way of alerting their staff if there is an issue with their firewall. SIPC has a third-party ISV (Independent Software Vendor) that provides on-call and disaster recovery monitoring. SIPC has an ISV contract that requires the ISV to assist SIPC in the event of any hardware or software issues. The system running on the SIPC network is vulnerable to being exploited by an attacker who can gain remote access to the system at any time by exploiting this flaw in the vendor’s firewall, which allows any attacker to gain remote access to the SIPC network. An attacker could exploit this flaw to gain remotely access to the SIPC network. This poses a significant risk of information disclosure and data loss because it would allow an attacker to monitor, intercept, and manipulate traffic going through the network without detection from internal security measures or public watchdogs such as government entities or internet service providers (ISPs).
Description of the SIPC Network and Components
The SIPC network consists of the following components:
1) Hosts and Servers: The hosts and servers are located in different subnets, separated by a firewall that is controlled by the third-party ISV.
2) Database server: The database server is a SQL Server 2008 instance with two databases on it.
3) Mainframe: SIPC uses a mainframe for some of its services.
4) Network devices: The network devices consist of switches, routers, firewalls, etc.
5) SIPC-ISV firewall: There are two instances of this firewall, one on each subnet.
6) SMTP Mail server: This mail server receives email from users as well as sends emails to users. All email sent to/from this server goes through an ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload), which is also managed by the third-party ISV.
How to Become Trusted on the Network
SIPC’s firewall vendor has a serious security flaw. This issue is resolved in version 2018.3.1p1, which was released on March 6, 2018. An attacker could leverage these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code, obtain access to information, or cause a denial-of-service (DoS).
