Summary

CVE-2023-32265 is a vulnerability affecting the Enterprise Server Common Web Administration (ESCWA) component used in Enterprise Server, Enterprise Test Server, Enterprise Developer, Visual COBOL, and COBOL Server. If exploited, an authenticated attacker could potentially gain access to a service account password.
