description
SonicWall Network Security Manager On-Prem export settings are affected by an improper access-control issue. A remote attacker with valid authentication may access sensitive information and could potentially gain administrator privileges or observe other users' communications.
mitigation
Upgrade NSM On-Prem to version 4.4.0 or later. Until upgraded, restrict access to trusted authenticated users and review permissions for export settings.
