Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference ('XXE') vulnerability in the Policy Engine of Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention (DLP), which is also leveraged by Forcepoint One Endpoint (F1E), Web Security Content Gateway, Email Security with DLP enabled, and Cloud Security Gateway prior to June 20, 2022. The XML parser in the Policy Engine was found to be improperly configured to support external entities and external DTD (Document Type Definitions), which can lead to an XXE attack. This issue affects: Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention (DLP) versions prior to 8.8.2. Forcepoint One Endpoint (F1E) with Policy Engine versions prior to 8.8.2. Forcepoint Web Security Content Gateway versions prior to 8.5.5. Forcepoint Email Security with DLP enabled versions prior to 8.5.5. Forcepoint Cloud Security Gateway prior to June 20, 2022.
Forcepoint One Endpoint prior to version 22.01 installed on Microsoft Windows is vulnerable to registry key tampering by users with Administrator privileges. This could result in a user disabling anti-tampering mechanisms which would then allow the user to disable Forcepoint One Endpoint and the protection offered by it.
Forcepoint One Endpoint prior to version 22.01 installed on Microsoft Windows does not provide sufficient anti-tampering protection of services by users with Administrator privileges. This could result in a user disabling Forcepoint One Endpoint and the protection offered by it.
Forcepoint NGFW Engine versions 6.5.11 and earlier, 6.8.6 and earlier, and 6.10.0 are vulnerable to TCP reflected amplification vulnerability, if HTTP User Response has been configured.
It has been reported that cross-site scripting (XSS) is possible in Forcepoint Web Security, version 8.x, via host header injection. CVSSv3.0: 5.3 (Medium) (/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N)
Forcepoint NGFW Security Management Center (SMC) versions lower than 6.5.12 or 6.7.1 have a rare issue that in specific circumstances can corrupt the internal configuration database. When the database is corrupted, the SMC might produce an incorrect IPsec configuration for the Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall (NGFW), possibly resulting in settings that are weaker than expected. All SMC versions lower than 6.5.12 or 6.7.1 are vulnerable.
It has been reported that XSS is possible in Forcepoint Email Security, versions 8.5 and 8.5.3. It is strongly recommended that you apply the relevant hotfix in order to remediate this issue.
