Description
If the Access Control List is enforced by the Control-M/Agent and the C router is in use (default in Out-of-support Control-M/Agent versions 9.0.18 to 9.0.20 and potentially earlier unsupported versions; non-default but configurable using the JAVA_AR setting in newer versions), the verification stops at the first NULL byte encountered in the email address referenced in the client certificate. An attacker could bypass configured ACLs by using a specially crafted certificate.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability occurs in certain versions of Control-M/Agent where the Access Control List (ACL) enforcement stops verifying the email address in the client certificate at the first NULL byte. An attacker can exploit this by using a specially crafted certificate with a NULL byte in the email address, allowing them to bypass the configured ACLs and gain unauthorized access.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can allow an attacker to bypass access controls, potentially gaining unauthorized access to systems or data protected by the ACLs in Control-M/Agent. This can lead to compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
