CVE-2022-0027


An improper authorization vulnerability in Palo Alto Network Cortex XSOAR software enables authenticated users in non-Read-Only groups to generate an email report that contains summary information about all incidents in the Cortex XSOAR instance, including incidents to which the user does not have access. This issue impacts: All versions of Cortex XSOAR 6.1; All versions of Cortex XSOAR 6.2; All versions of Cortex XSOAR 6.5; Cortex XSOAR 6.6 versions earlier than Cortex XSOAR 6.6.0 build 6.6.0.2585049.


Security Impact Summary

This vulnerability carries a MEDIUM severity rating with a CVSS v3.1 score of 4.3, indicating it can be exploited remotely over the network with relatively low complexity without requiring user interaction requiring only low-level privileges . The vulnerability impacts limited data confidentiality, for affected systems. Impacting 1 product from paloaltonetworks organizations running these solutions should prioritize assessment and patching.

Historical Context

Reported in 2022, this vulnerability emerged during an era marked by increased sophistication in supply chain attacks, cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) security challenges. Security practices during this period emphasized zero-trust architectures, container security, and API protection.

How SecUtils Interprets This CVE

SecUtils normalizes and enriches National Vulnerability Database (NVD) records by standardizing vendor and product identifiers, aggregating vulnerability metadata from both NVD and MITRE sources, and providing structured context for security teams. For paloaltonetworks's affected products, we extract Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) data, Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) classifications, CVSS severity metrics, and reference data to enable rapid vulnerability prioritization and asset correlation. This record contains no exploit code, proof-of-concept instructions, or attack methodologies—only defensive intelligence necessary for patch management, risk assessment, and security operations.
