A vulnerability has been identified in Control Center Server (CCS) (All versions < V1.5.0). The Control Center Server (CCS) does not enforce logging of security-relevant activities in its XML-based communication protocol as provided by default on ports 5444/tcp and 5440/tcp. An authenticated remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to perform covert actions that are not visible in the application log.

Weakness

When a security-critical event occurs, the product either does not record the event or omits important details about the event when logging it.

Extended Description

When security-critical events are not logged properly, such as a failed login attempt, this can make malicious behavior more difficult to detect and may hinder forensic analysis after an attack succeeds. As organizations adopt cloud storage resources, these technologies often require configuration changes to enable detailed logging information, since detailed logging can incur additional costs. This could lead to telemetry gaps in critical audit logs. For example, in Azure, the default value for logging is disabled.
