Technical description

An issue was discovered in Tufin SecureTrack 18.1 with TufinOS 2.16 build 1179(Final). The Audit Report module is affected by a blind XXE vulnerability when a new Best Practices Report is saved using a special payload inside the xml input field.

An attacker is able to view restricted operating system files. This issue affects all types of users: administrators or normal users.
