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-2016-5749 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NetIQ Access 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-2016-5749/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5749/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-5749","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5749/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-5749","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w6x6-jqmr-mmc8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NetIQ Access Manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can exploit XML External Entity vulnerabilities in SAML request parsing to disclose local files from the server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xxe"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microfocus","cpe":[{"product":"access_manager","vendor":"netiq"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-611","name":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference"}],"description":"NetIQ Access Manager 4.1 before 4.1.2 HF 1 and 4.2 before 4.2.2 was parsing incoming SAML requests with external entity resolution enabled, which could lead to local file disclosure via an XML External Entity (XXE) attack.","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":"XML external entity in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5749","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xxe","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"File upload in NetIQ iManager","id":"CVE-2016-5750"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"XML external entity in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5748"},"products":["NetIQ Access Manager"],"published":"2017-03-23","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"File upload in NetIQ Access Manager, Administrative Console","id":"CVE-2018-1342","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2017-14803","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5757","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"File upload in NetIQ iManager","id":"CVE-2016-5750","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5758","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5752","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in NetIQ Access Manager","id":"CVE-2016-5754","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-23"}],"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":"Attackers can exploit XML External Entity vulnerabilities in SAML request parsing to disclose local files from the server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5749/"}
