Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
An improper verification of cryptographic signature vulnerability exists in Cortex XSOAR and Cortex XSIAM platforms during integration of Microsoft Teams that enables an unauthenticated user to access and modify protected resources.

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 · moderate confidence

This vulnerability in Cortex XSOAR and Cortex XSIAM platforms allows unauthenticated users to access and modify protected resources due to improper verification of cryptographic signatures during Microsoft Teams integration. An attacker could exploit this flaw to bypass authentication and tamper with data or functionality within the affected platforms.

MitigationApply vendor-supplied patches or updates for Cortex XSOAR and Cortex XSIAM that address the cryptographic signature verification flaw in the Microsoft Teams integration. Until patched, disable the Microsoft Teams integration if possible and monitor for unauthorized access.

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 Cortex product and version
    Access the platform settings or about page. In Cortex XSOAR, go to Settings > About. In Cortex XSIAM, go to Settings > Configurations > About. Record the exact version number displayed.
    Affected if The version shown is >= 1.5.0 and < 1.5.52 for either Cortex XSOAR or Cortex XSIAM.
  2. Verify Microsoft Teams integration status
    Navigate to Settings > Integrations > Microsoft Teams (or search for 'Teams' in the integrations list). Check if the integration instance exists and shows as 'Enabled' or 'Connected'.
    Affected if A Microsoft Teams integration instance is enabled and configured in the platform.
  3. Inspect Microsoft Teams integration configuration
    Open the Microsoft Teams integration settings. Review the configured parameters including incoming webhook URLs, authentication settings, and any custom bot configurations.
    Affected if The integration uses custom or non-default webhook configurations, or shows signs of modification.
  4. Review integration audit logs for Teams activity
    Go to Settings > Audit or Logs > Audit. Filter for events involving Microsoft Teams integration, particularly authentication events or configuration changes.
    Affected if There are unexpected authentication attempts, unauthorized configuration changes, or unusual Teams-related events from unexpected sources.

You are affected if your Cortex XSOAR or XSIAM version is between 1.5.0 and 1.5.52 inclusive and you have the Microsoft Teams integration enabled.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 1.5.52 or later
Fixed in 1.5.52
Interim mitigation

Apply vendor-supplied patches or updates for Cortex XSOAR and Cortex XSIAM that address the cryptographic signature verification flaw in the Microsoft Teams integration. Until patched, disable the Microsoft Teams integration if possible and monitor for unauthorized access.

Recommended fix High confidence

Cortex XSOAR/XSIAM version 1.5.52 or later

  1. 1. Identify current Cortex XSOAR or Cortex XSIAM version by checking the system settings or using the CLI command `pan-python` or admin console
  2. 2. Verify if Microsoft Teams integration is deployed by reviewing installed content packs and integrations
  3. 3. Plan for upgrade to version 1.5.52 or later - review Palo Alto Networks upgrade documentation for prerequisites
  4. 4. Perform a backup of current configuration and content
  5. 5. Execute the upgrade to version 1.5.52 or later following standard Palo Alto Networks upgrade procedures
  6. 6. After upgrade, verify the Microsoft Teams integration is functioning correctly
  7. 7. Confirm the system is running the fixed version by checking the version number in the admin console
