CVE-2021-32587: An improper access control vulnerability in FortiManager and FortiAnalyzer GUI interface 7.0.0, 6.4.5 and below, 6.2.8 and below, 6.0.11 and below, 5.6.11 and below may allow a remote and authenticated attacker with restricted user profile to retrieve the list of administrative users of other ADOMs and their related configuration.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2021-32587

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2021-32587 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2021-32587

CVE-2021-32587 presents an accessible attack vector with minimal effort required. Restricting access controls and implementing security updates are critical to reducing exploitation risks.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2021-32587, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

CIA Impact Analysis

Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2021-32587, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.

  • Confidentiality: Low
    CVE-2021-32587 could lead to minor leaks of non-critical information without major privacy breaches.
  • Integrity: None
    CVE-2021-32587 poses no threat to data integrity.
  • Availability: None
    CVE-2021-32587 does not impact system availability.

Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS)

The EPSS score estimates the probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the near future.

EPSS Score: 0.054% (probability of exploit)

EPSS Percentile: 26.27% (lower percentile = lower relative risk)
This vulnerability is less risky than approximately 73.73% of others.
