XClarity Administrator (LXCA), published on 12 Jan 2017. 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-2016-8221 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Lenovo Group Ltd. XClarity Administrator (LXCA). 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-2016-8221/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8221/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-8221","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8221/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-8221","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x22w-gfvm-wmxm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Lenovo XClarity Administrator","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can view log files containing internal administrative passwords, enabling privilege escalation in Lenovo XClarity Administrator.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"lenovo","cpe":[{"product":"xclarity_administrator","vendor":"lenovo"}],"cvss":{"score":7,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Privilege Escalation in Lenovo XClarity Administrator earlier than 1.2.0, if LXCA is used to manage rack switches or chassis with embedded input/output modules (IOMs), certain log files viewable by authenticated users may contain passwords for internal administrative LXCA accounts with temporary passwords that are used internally by LXCA code.","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":"Information disclosure in XClarity Administrator (LXCA)","id":"CVE-2016-8221","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in ThinkPad systems","id":"CVE-2016-8222"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Gemfire for PCF","id":"CVE-2016-8220"},"products":["XClarity Administrator (LXCA)"],"published":"2017-01-12","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in XClarity Administrator","id":"CVE-2016-8233","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-01"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in Lenovo xClarity Administrator","id":"CVE-2018-9064","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-30"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Command injection in Lenovo xClarity Administrator","id":"CVE-2018-9066","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-30"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Lenovo XClarity Administrator (LXCA)","id":"CVE-2017-3770","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-09-22"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Information disclosure in Lenovo XClarity Administrator","id":"CVE-2019-6158","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-05-03"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"XML external entity in Lenovo XClarity Administrator","id":"CVE-2023-3113","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-26"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"SQL injection in Lenovo XClarity Administrator","id":"CVE-2023-34418","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-26"}],"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":["Lenovo Group Ltd."]},"summary":"Authenticated users can view log files containing internal administrative passwords, enabling privilege escalation in Lenovo XClarity Administrator.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8221/"}
