Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in RSA Archer Platform allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code by tricking a user's authenticated browser into sending a crafted request to the platform. The vulnerability exists in versions before v6.13 (fixed in v6.12.0.6 and v6.13.0).

MitigationUpgrade to Archer Platform v6.12.0.6 or v6.13.0 or later. Implement anti-CSRF tokens and validate Origin/Referer headers on sensitive endpoints as additional defense-in-depth measures.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed RSA Archer Platform version
    Log into the Archer administration console or check the software inventory/system information page for the current platform version number
    Affected if The displayed version is lower than 6.12.0.6 (or between 6.12.0.0 and 6.12.0.5) or shows a version prior to 6.13.0
  2. Verify the exact version string
    Confirm the full version number including patch level (for example, 6.11.0.0, 6.12.0.0, 6.12.0.5) from the About or System Information section of the Archer UI
    Affected if The version starts with 6.12.0.0 through 6.12.0.5, or is any version below 6.12.0.6 that is not 6.13.0 or higher
  3. Check for available version documentation
    Review any internal change logs, release notes, or system documentation that references the currently deployed Archer version
    Affected if Documentation shows the installed version is any release prior to the v6.12.0.6 or v6.13.0 patch releases

You are affected if your deployed RSA Archer Platform version is any release below 6.12.0.6 or below 6.13.0, as these are the versions that contain the CSRF vulnerability fix.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 6.12.0.6 or later
Fixed in 6.12.0.6
Interim mitigation

Upgrade to Archer Platform v6.12.0.6 or v6.13.0 or later. Implement anti-CSRF tokens and validate Origin/Referer headers on sensitive endpoints as additional defense-in-depth measures.

Recommended fix High confidence

6.12.0.6 or 6.13.0

  1. Identify the current Archer Platform version by accessing the system or administration console
