It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-0921 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2016-0921/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-0921/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-0921","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-0921/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-0921","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4q6r-jm8c-jqx7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"EMC Avamar Server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can gain root access by replacing scripts in directories with weak permissions in EMC Avamar Server.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"avamar_server","vendor":"emc"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Avamar Data Store (ADS) and Avamar Virtual Edition (AVE) in EMC Avamar Server before 7.3.0-233 use weak permissions for unspecified directories, which allows local users to obtain root access by replacing a script with a Trojan horse program.","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-2016-0921","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-0922"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-0920"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-09-21","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in EMC Avamar Server 7.1.x, 7.2.x, 7.3.x, 7.4.x, 7.5.0, EMC NetWorker Virtual Edition (NVE) 9.0.x, 9.1.x, 9.2.x, EMC Integrated Data Protection Appliance 2.0","id":"CVE-2017-15548","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in EMC Avamar Server Software 7.3.1-125, 7.3.0-233, 7.3.0-226, 7.2.1-32, 7.2.1-31, 7.2.0-401","id":"CVE-2017-4989","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in EMC Avamar Server Software 7.4.1-58, 7.4.0-242, 7.3.1-125, 7.3.0-233, 7.3.0-226","id":"CVE-2017-4990","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-21"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-0903","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-09-21"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3274","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-07-18"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"File upload in EMC Avamar Server 7.1.x, 7.2.x, 7.3.x, 7.4.x, 7.5.0, EMC NetWorker Virtual Edition (NVE) 9.0.x, 9.1.x, 9.2.x, EMC Integrated Data Protection Appliance 2.0","id":"CVE-2017-15549","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-05"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in EMC Avamar Server 7.1.x, 7.2.x, 7.3.x, 7.4.x, 7.5.0, EMC NetWorker Virtual Edition (NVE) 9.0.x, 9.1.x, 9.2.x, EMC Integrated Data Protection Appliance 2.0","id":"CVE-2017-15550","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-05"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can gain root access by replacing scripts in directories with weak permissions in EMC Avamar Server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-0921/"}
