Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-6420 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-2016-6420/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6420/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-6420","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6420/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-6420","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r4rh-wx3c-837c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Firepower Management Center","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated users can bypass authorization checks and gain privileges via crafted HTTP requests in Cisco Firepower Management Center.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"firesight_system_software","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null},{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"Cisco FireSIGHT System Software 4.10.3 through 5.4.0 in Firepower Management Center allows remote authenticated users to bypass authorization checks and gain privileges via a crafted HTTP request, aka Bug ID CSCur25467.","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 n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6420","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6421"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6419"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-10-05","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6394","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-09-12"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-6335","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-10-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6417","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-10-05"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1394","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-07-03"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Cisco Firepower System Software","id":"CVE-2017-6766","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-07"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Cisco FireSIGHT","id":"CVE-2016-9193","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-12-14"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Cisco Firepower System Software 5.4.0.2 through 6.2.0","id":"CVE-2016-6460","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-11-19"}],"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":"Remote authenticated users can bypass authorization checks and gain privileges via crafted HTTP requests in Cisco Firepower Management Center.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6420/"}
