CVE-2020-7269
Exposure of Sensitive Information in the web interface in Advanced Threat Defense (ATD) prior to 4.12.2 allows remote authenticated users to view sensitive unencrypted information via a carefully crafted HTTP request parameter. The risk is partially mitigated if your ATD instances are deployed as recommended with no direct access from the Internet to them.

To remediate this issue, go to the Product Downloads site, and download the latest version. See the Frequently Asked Questions section for the path to upgrade from older versions to this version.
| Product | Version | Type | Release Date |
| ATD | 4.12.2 | Update | April 14, 2021 |
Download and Installation Instructions
For instructions to download product updates and hotfixes, see KB56057 - How to download Enterprise product updates and documentation. Review the Release Notes and the Installation Guide for instructions on how to install these updates. All documentation is available on the Product Documentation site.
Migration
See the Migration Guide for instructions to get to a protected version.
IMPORTANT: When upgrading to the appropriate ATD version with the fix, you must use the migration package. Failure to use the correct migration package causes installation failures and requires a reimage of the appliance.

NOTES:
- See Supported Upgrade Paths.
- If you are running ATD version 3.8.x or earlier, we strongly recommend a reimage of the ATD appliance directly to version 4.10. This reimage minimizes the number of upgrade steps and avoids potential upgrade failures. See Migration Criteria.
- Installation could take a minimum of 30 minutes and up to two hours. The time depends on the number of virtual machines and the database size in the deployment.

What is CVSS?
CVSS, or Common Vulnerability Scoring System, is the result of the National Infrastructure Advisory Council's effort to standardize a system of assessing the criticality of a vulnerability. This system offers an unbiased criticality score between 0 and 10 that customers can use to judge how critical a vulnerability is and plan accordingly. For more information, visit the CVSS website.
When calculating CVSS scores, we've adopted a philosophy that fosters consistency and repeatability. Our guiding principle for CVSS scoring is to score the exploit under consideration by itself. We consider only the immediate and direct impact of the exploit under consideration. We do not factor into a score any potential follow-on exploits that might be made possible by the successful exploitation of the issue being scored.
What are the CVSS scoring metrics?

All Security Bulletins are published on our Knowledge Center. Security Bulletins are retired (removed) once a product is both End of Sale and End of Support (End of Life).
How do I report a product vulnerability to you?
If you have information about a security issue or vulnerability with a product, follow the instructions provided in KB95563 - Report a vulnerability.
How do you respond to this and any other reported security flaws?
Our key priority is the security of our customers. If a vulnerability is found within any of our software or services, we work closely with the relevant security software development team to ensure the rapid and effective development of a fix and communication plan.
We only publish Security Bulletins if they include something actionable such as a workaround, mitigation, version update, or hotfix. Otherwise, we would simply be informing the hacker community that our products are a target, putting our customers at greater risk. For products that are updated automatically, a non-actionable Security Bulletin might be published to acknowledge the discoverer.
To view our PSIRT policy, see KB95564 - About PSIRT.
