What is CVE-2023-23632?

BeyondTrust Privileged Remote Access (PRA) versions 22.2.x through 22.4.x are affected by a vulnerability that allows attackers to bypass local authentication. This exploitation is made possible through a flaw in the secret verification mechanism utilized in BYOT shell jump sessions. By guessing just the first character of the secret, an unauthorized user can gain access to jump items, posing a significant risk to sensitive information and systems managed through the PRA service.
