CVE-2020-16272 describes a critical vulnerability in the SRP-6a implementation of Kee Vault KeePassRPC versions prior to 1.12.0. This flaw, stemming from missing validation of a client-provided parameter, allows remote attackers to read and modify data within the KeePass database via a specially crafted WebSocket connection. With a CVSS score of 9.1 (CRITICAL), it presents a high risk due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and high impact on confidentiality and integrity.
