Vulnerability Data
The External Visitor Manager portal of HID’s SAFE versions 5.8.0 through 5.11.3 are vulnerable to manipulation within web fields in the application programmable interface (API). An attacker could log in using account credentials available through a request generated by an…

internal user and then manipulate the visitor-id within the web API to access the personal data of other users. There is no limit on the number of requests that can be made to the HID SAFE Web Server, so an attacker could also exploit this vulnerability to create a denial-of-service condition.

Likely Mitigating Controls AI
Per-CVE control mapping for this CVE has not run yet; the list below is derived from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry.
Checksums and integrity protection during transformation/packing detect unauthorized modification of data assumed to be immutable before it is transmitted.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Least-privilege access controls directly block unauthorized writes to assumed-immutable data.
Integrity mechanisms for data-at-rest prevent modification of elements expected to remain immutable.
Protecting data-in-use integrity stops runtime tampering of values treated as constant.
Logical access controls reduce the attack surface for modifying internal assumed-immutable state.
Hardened configuration baselines limit opportunities to alter data presumed immutable.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Security testing can detect unauthorized modification paths for assumed-immutable data.
Secure SDLC practices include design reviews that identify and protect data assumed to be immutable.
Application security requirements can mandate integrity protections for data declared immutable.
Secure architecture principles call for explicit immutability guarantees and enforcement mechanisms.
Secure coding standards discourage mutable storage for values that must remain constant.
Access-control rules directly prevent unauthorized modification of data assumed to be immutable.
