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-2015-1946 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Websphere Application Server. 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-2015-1946/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1946/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-1946","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1946/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-1946","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mrjc-wrm5-v28v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM WebSphere Application Server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local users can gain elevated privileges in IBM WebSphere Application Server due to improper implementation of user roles.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"websphere_application_server","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"websphere_virtual_enterprise","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"IBM WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 8.5 before 8.5.5.6, and WebSphere Virtual Enterprise 7.0 before 7.0.0.6 for WebSphere Application Server (WAS) 7.0 and 8.0, does not properly implement user roles, which allows local users to gain privileges 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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1946","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ibm:websphere_application_server","products":["ibm:websphere_application_server"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1947"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1945"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-07-14","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1920","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-05-20"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-0462","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-01-27"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-1377","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-01-15"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-3186","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-30"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1899","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-06-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1901","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-06-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1172","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-03-31"}],"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":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local users can gain elevated privileges in IBM WebSphere Application Server due to improper implementation of user roles.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1946/"}
