Veeam ONE: MFA bypass by disabling MFA with Administrator credentials
Summary
Veeam ONE 13.1 up to build 13.1.0.7233 allows an attacker with valid Administrator credentials to disable multi-factor authentication globally before completing MFA verification. The attacker can then keep access to the product without the second factor. The attack is network-reachable and low-complexity but requires high privileges; Veeam rates it High (CVSS v4.0 8.5).
Affected
- Veeam ONE 13.1 builds up to and including 13.1.0.7233
- Older versions (e.g., 13.0.x and 12.x) are not affected according to Veeam
- Veeam Backup & Replication is not covered by this CVE
Fixed in
- Veeam ONE 13.1 P1 (build 13.1.0.7940) per Veeam KB4951
Workaround
- Unknown. Veeam's advisory lists only the patched build and no workaround.
- Detection step: verify that MFA is still enabled on Veeam ONE and treat the Administrator account as compromised if MFA was turned off without authorisation.
Exploitation
- No known exploitation at the time of writing.
- No public exploit according to PSIRT data; no CISA KEV entry.
- EPSS score: 0.35 %.
Our recommendation
- Check whether Veeam ONE is installed and confirm its build.
- If the build is 13.1.0.7233 or earlier, update to Veeam ONE 13.1 P1 (13.1.0.7940) per KB4951.
- Verify that MFA is enabled on all Veeam ONE administrator accounts and review recent admin logins and MFA setting changes.
- Restrict Administrator rights and limit access to the Veeam ONE management interface to management networks.
Public exploits
PoC-in-GitHub, Metasploit and Exploit-DB list nothing for this CVE.
