Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-8021 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: F5 Big-Ip Access Policy Manager. 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-2015-8021/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8021/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-8021","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8021/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-8021","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7v4p-8gjr-6xq3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"F5 BIG-IP","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated users can upload arbitrary files via an incomplete blacklist in the Configuration utility, potentially leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"big-ip_access_policy_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_advanced_firewall_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_analytics","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_application_acceleration_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_application_security_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_edge_gateway","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_global_traffic_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_link_controller","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_local_traffic_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_policy_enforcement_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_protocol_security_module","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_wan_optimization_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_webaccelerator","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in the Configuration utility in F5 BIG-IP LTM, Analytics, APM, ASM, GTM, Link Controller, and PSM 11.x before 11.2.1 HF11, 11.3.x, 11.4.0 before HF8, and 11.4.1 before HF6;
