Ellucian Ethos Identity is a product that offers single sign-on service to various educational institutions. It is designed to make login processes easier and more secure. The software allows students, faculty, and staff to access online applications with just one set of credentials, eliminating the need to remember multiple logins. Ethos Identity also provides a way for institutions to manage and protect user data, ensuring that only authorized personnel can access it.
However, the CVE-2023-2822 vulnerability has been detected in Ethos Identity up to version 5.10.5. This vulnerability allows attackers to inject malicious code into unsuspecting users' browsers, leading to cross-site scripting attacks. By manipulating the URL argument in the /cas/logout file, attackers can steal sensitive information like usernames and passwords, compromising the security of the system and user data stored within it.
If this vulnerability is exploited, the consequences could be severe. Attackers can steal sensitive information, including personal data, banking information, and login credentials. These types of attacks can also compromise the security of the entire system, making it vulnerable to further attacks. This can lead to reputational damage to the educational institution, affecting its credibility and causing a loss of trust among students, faculty, and staff.
