CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedApache Syncope versions 3.0.0-M0 to 3.0.16, 4.0.0-M0 to 4.0.7, and 4.1.0-M0 to 4.1.2 are vulnerable to an incorrect authorization issue due to a flawed implementation of delegated administration security checks, which fails to properly distinguish between sibling Realms with similar names. This vulnerability could allow unauthorized access to sensitive resources, posing a significant risk to organizations relying on these versions for identity management. Administrators should prioritize upgrading to versions 4.0.8 or 4.1.3 to mitigate this risk.

Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in Apache Syncope. Delegated administration security checks are based on Realm hierarchy and enforced via prefix matches. Due to incorrect implementation, two sibling Realms whose names begin with the same string cannot be correctly distinguished, resulting in incorrect authorization. This issue affects Apache Syncope: from 3.0.0-M0 through 3.0.16, from 4.0.0-M0 Through 4.0.7, from 4.1.0-M0 through 4.1.2. Users are recommended to upgrade to version 4.0.8 / 4.1.3, which fix this issue.
