An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2016-5763 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2016-5763 is a critical missing authorization vulnerability in Novell Open Enterprise Server 11 and 2015, published on 15 Nov 2016. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-5763 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Novell Open Enterprise Server 11 and 2015. 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-2016-5763/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5763/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-5763","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5763/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-5763","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gmh7-75f4-578m"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Novell Open Enterprise Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Authenticated remote attackers can perform unauthorized file access and modification in Novell Open Enterprise Server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microfocus","cpe":[{"product":"open_enterprise_server_11","vendor":"novell"},{"product":"open_enterprise_server_2015","vendor":"novell"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-254","name":null}],"description":"Vulnerability in Novell Open Enterprise Server (OES2015 SP1 before Scheduled Maintenance Update 10992, OES2015 before Scheduled Maintenance Update 10990, OES11 SP3 before Scheduled Maintenance Update 10991, OES11 SP2 before Scheduled Maintenance Update 10989) might allow authenticated remote attackers to perform unauthorized file access and modification.","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":"Missing authorization in Novell Open Enterprise Server 11 and 2015","id":"CVE-2016-5763","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Micro Focus Rumba FTP 4.X before 4.5 (HF 14668)","id":"CVE-2016-5764"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-5762"},"products":["Novell Open Enterprise Server 11 and 2015"],"published":"2016-11-15","related":[],"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":"Authenticated remote attackers can perform unauthorized file access and modification in Novell Open Enterprise Server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5763/"}
