It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2012-4121 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Nx-Os. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4121/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4121/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-4121","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4121/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-4121","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r8fm-j5xm-43cp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco NX-OS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges and read or modify arbitrary files on Cisco NX-OS devices using specific sed commands.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"nx-os","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Cisco NX-OS allows local users to gain privileges, and read or modify arbitrary files, via the sed (1) r and (2) w commands, aka Bug IDs CSCts56559, CSCts56565, CSCts56570, and CSCts56574.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-4121","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:nx-os","products":["cisco:nx-os"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-4122"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2012-4120"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2013-10-14","related":[{"cvss_score":6,"headline":"Cisco NX-OS Command Injection","id":"CVE-2024-20399","kev_date_added":"2024-07-02","published":"2024-07-01"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cisco NX-OS Software Unauthenticated Arbitrary File Actions Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2021-1361","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-02-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Cisco NX-OS unknown","id":"CVE-2018-0301","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-06-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1453","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-10-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1341","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-02-24"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco NX-OS Software NX-API Command Injection Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-20650","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cisco NX-OS Software Data Management Engine Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-3415","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-08-27"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges and read or modify arbitrary files on Cisco NX-OS devices using specific sed commands.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4121/"}
