An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2013-1405 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vmware Esx. 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-2013-1405/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-1405/index.md)","id":"CVE-2013-1405","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-1405/index.md","name":"CVE-2013-1405","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v887-6g7g-j8hv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware vCenter Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service via improper management authentication protocol implementation in VMware vCenter and ESXi.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"esx","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"esxi","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"vcenter_server","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"vi-client","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"virtualcenter","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"vsphere_client","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"VMware vCenter Server 4.0 before Update 4b and 4.1 before Update 3a, VMware VirtualCenter 2.5, VMware vSphere Client 4.0 before Update 4b and 4.1 before Update 3a, VMware VI-Client 2.5, VMware ESXi 3.5 through 4.1, and VMware ESX 3.5 through 4.1 do not properly implement the management authentication protocol, which allow remote servers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via unspecified vectors.","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":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1405","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:esx","products":["vmware:esx","vmware:esxi","vmware:vcenter_server"],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2013"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1406"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1402"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2013-02-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-1516","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-05-04"},{"cvss_score":9.4,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3658","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-09-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3288","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-06-14"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4281","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-11-10"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-1517","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-05-04"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2449","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-05-04"}],"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":"2024-09-17","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service via improper management authentication protocol implementation in VMware vCenter and ESXi.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-1405/"}
