An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-9097 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Symantec Advanced Secure Gateway (ASG) and ProxySG. 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-2016-9097/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9097/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-9097","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9097/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-9097","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qjw8-fqfp-g4fh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Symantec ProxySG","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A malicious read-only administrator can bypass authorization checks to access read-write management console functions in Symantec ProxySG.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"symantec","cpe":[{"product":"advanced_secure_gateway","vendor":"broadcom"},{"product":"symantec_proxysg","vendor":"broadcom"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The Symantec Advanced Secure Gateway (ASG) 6.6 prior to 6.6.5.8, ProxySG 6.5 prior 6.5.10.6, ProxySG 6.6 prior to 6.6.5.8, and ProxySG 6.7 prior to 6.7.1.2 management consoles do not, under certain circumstances, correctly authorize administrator users.
