CVE-2016-9796
Last modified
CVE-2016-9796 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Alcatel-Lucent OmniVista 8770 2.0 through 3.0 exposes different ORBs interfaces, which can be queried using the GIOP protocol on TCP port 30024. An attacker can bypass authentication, and OmniVista invokes methods (AddJobSet, AddJob, and ExecuteNow) that can be used to run arbitrary commands on the server, with the privilege of NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM on the server. EPSS estimates a 13.36% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
