CVE-2025-20628Insufficient granularity of access control for Remote Connector Servers in client mode
Medium 6.9
In plain English
A medium-severity security flaw in PingIDM from Ping Identity. There are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.2% (higher than 13% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
An insufficient granularity of access control vulnerability exists in PingIDM (formerly ForgeRock Identity Management) where administrators cannot properly configure access rules for Remote Connector Servers (RCS) running in client mode. This means attackers can spoof a client-mode RCS (if one exists) to intercept and/or modify an identity’s security-relevant properties, such as passwords and account recovery information. This issue is exploitable only when an RCS is configured to run in client mode.
