Summary

In Nmap Scanner versions below 3.0.15, a user with a role that can edit, create, or run playbooks in Splunk SOAR could run the scan network action in a Safe Mode playbook while that action is listed as read-only, which could allow for command execution or other changes on a target system through Nmap Scripting Engine scripts. The vulnerability is possible because the action manifest classifies the action as read-only even though it accepts script parameters that can perform write operations.

Risk Assessment

Risk of unauthorized command execution on target systems, potentially leading to integrity and confidentiality breaches.

Recommendation

Update Nmap Scanner to version 3.0.15 or later to ensure proper action classification.

Original NVD description (English source)

In Nmap Scanner versions below 3.0.15, a user who holds a role that can edit, create, or run playbooks in Splunk SOAR could run the scan network action in a Safe Mode playbook while that action is listed as read-only, which could allow for command execution or other changes on a target system through Nmap Scripting Engine scripts. The vulnerability is possible because the Nmap Scanner connector action manifest classifies the scan network action as read-only even though the action accepts script parameters that can perform write operations.
