Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2016-15057 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.apache.continuum:continuum (Maven): affected all versions up to 1.4.2; no fix listed\n- org.apache.continuum:continuum (Maven): affected all versions up to 1.4.2; no fix listed\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-2016-15057/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-15057/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-15057","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-15057/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-15057","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-77p9-w6pj-rmvg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"end_of_life","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Continuum","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers with REST API access can execute arbitrary commands on the server via command injection in the retired Apache Continuum.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"continuum","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":9.9,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"** UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED ** Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command ('Command Injection') vulnerability in Apache Continuum.\n\nThis issue affects Apache Continuum: all versions.\n\nAttackers with access to the installations REST API can use this to invoke arbitrary commands on the server.\n\nAs this project is retired, we do not plan to release a version that fixes this issue.
