Zenprise Device Manager CSRF vulnerability

Vulnerability Note VU#584363

Original Release Date: 2011-11-18 | Last Revised: 2012-08-03

Overview

The Zenprise Device Manager software is susceptible to a cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability that may result in the compromise of the fleet of mobile devices managed by the product.

Description

Zenprise Device Manager is a mobile device management (MDM) software package that can be used to manage an enterprise's mobile device fleet. The Zenprise Device manager web interface is vulnerable to cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. A successful CSRF attack against an admin user will allow a remote attacker to run commands as the admin user on any device managed by Zenprise Device Manager.

Impact

By tricking a logged in admin user to visit a specially crafted URL, a remote attacker may be able to access any managed device as the admin. The attacker can then perform any action an admin can, including remotely wiping the device.

Solution

Zenprise has released a patch to address this issue. Current customers can find more information about this vulnerability and patch on the Zenprise customer center.
