CVE-2020-14871
CriticalCVSS 10.0KEVSummary
Vulnerability in the Pluggable authentication module of Oracle Solaris affecting versions 10 and 11. An unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols can easily exploit it and take over the system; it is not exploitable on Solaris 11.1 and later or ZFSSA 8.7 and later.
Risk Assessment
The ability to remotely take over an Oracle Solaris system without authentication is a critical threat, and an attack may also significantly impact additional related products.
Recommendation
Update Oracle Solaris to version 11.1 or later or apply the available Oracle patches. Restrict network access to authentication services on systems running vulnerable versions.
