Yamcs is a mission control framework. Prior to 5.12.8 and 5.13.2, Yamcs WebSocket subscription handlers fail to enforce the privileges required by equivalent REST endpoints. PacketsApi.subscribePackets exposes the packets WebSocket topic without ObjectPrivilegeType.ReadPacket, ProcessingApi.subscribeAlgorithmStatus exposes the algorithm-status WebSocket topic without ObjectPrivilegeType.ReadAlgorithm, and MdbOverrideApi.subscribeMdbChanges exposes the mdb-changes WebSocket topic without SystemPrivilege.GetMissionDatabase. A low-privilege authenticated user can receive telemetry packets, algorithm status, and mission database change information outside the assigned authorization scope. This issue is fixed in versions 5.12.8 and 5.13.2.

Exploitation none (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). All three are CISA's SSVC values (Vulnrichment). EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse".
