Bmc · Bmc Patrol · CVE-2023-34257
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
BMC Patrol versions through 23.1.00
**Description**
An issue was discovered where the agent's configuration can be remotely modified, and by default, authentication is not required. Some configuration fields related to SNMP, such as `masterAgentName` or `masterAgentStartLine`, result in code execution when the agent is restarted.
**Recommendations**
For BMC Patrol versions through 23.1.00, consider implementing authentication to prevent remote modification of the agent's configuration as a mitigation measure. Restrict access to configuration fields related to SNMP to minimize the risk of exploitation.
