CVE-2026-31985

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

When the upstream Guardian or CMC was configured in the Remote Collector via n2os-tui, the generated configuration disabled TLS certificate verification, and no option was provided to enable it. A malicious actor could perform a man-in-the-middle attack and intercept the communication between the Remote Collector and the Guardian or CMC. This could result in theft of the sync token, impersonation of the server, injection of spoofed data (such as false asset information or vulnerabilities) into the Guardian or CMC, or disruption of the data flow between the Remote Collector and the Guardian or CMC.

Un actor malicioso podría realizar un ataque man-in-the-middle e interceptar la comunicación entre el Recolector Remoto y el Guardian o CMC. Esto podría resultar en el robo del token de sincronización, la suplantación del servidor, la inyección de datos falsificados (como información falsa de activos o vulnerabilidades) en el Guardian o CMC, o la interrupción del flujo de datos entre el Recolector Remoto y el Guardian o CMC."
