Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: ManageEngine Desktop Central MSP version 10.0.137

Description: The issue allows attackers to download unencrypted XML files containing sensitive data, such as passwords and Wi-Fi keys, via a predictable API endpoint "/client-data//collections/##/usermgmt.xml". This can lead to remote information disclosure and escalation of privileges.

Recommendations: For ManageEngine Desktop Central MSP version 10.0.137, update to build 100157 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the "/client-data//collections/##/usermgmt.xml" API endpoint to minimize the risk of exploitation.
