Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in NICMx Fort up to 1.6.4. Affected is an unknown code of the component RPKI Data Handler. This is going to have an impact on integrity. CVE summarizes:

A validation integrity issue was discovered in Fort through 1.6.4 before 2.0.0. RPKI Relying Parties (such as Fort) are supposed to maintain a backup cache of the remote RPKI data. This can be employed as a fallback in case a new fetch fails or yields incorrect files. However, the product currently uses its cache merely as a bandwidth saving tool (because fetching is performed through deltas). If a fetch fails midway or yields incorrect files, there is no viable fallback. This leads to incomplete route origin validation data.

The advisory is available at nicmx.github.io. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2024-56169 since 12/18/2024. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available.
