An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-3960 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: McAfee Network Security Management (NSM). 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-2017-3960/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-3960/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-3960","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-3960/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-3960","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hg2w-8j4g-3rj2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Network Security Management","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can gain elevated privileges in McAfee NSM via a crafted HTTP request parameter.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trellix","cpe":[{"product":"network_security_manager","vendor":"mcafee"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Exploitation of Authorization vulnerability in the web interface in McAfee Network Security Management (NSM) before 8.2.7.42.2 allows authenticated users to gain elevated privileges via a crafted HTTP request parameter.","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":"McAfee Network Security Management (NSM) - Exploitation of Authorization vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3960","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3961"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2017-3959"},"products":["Network Security Management (NSM)"],"published":"2018-06-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) (aka Session Riding) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3965","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-04"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Infrastructure-based foot printing vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3972","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-03"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Abuse of communication channels vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3969","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-04"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"SB10192 - Network Security Management (NSM) - Cryptanalysis vulnerability","id":"CVE-2017-3971","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-04"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Data leakage when in an MDR pair by McAfee Network Security Manager 9.x","id":"CVE-2019-3606","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-26"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-2390","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-08-29"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Authentication bypass in McAfee Network Security Manager 9.x","id":"CVE-2019-3597","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-26"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["McAfee"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can gain elevated privileges in McAfee NSM via a crafted HTTP request parameter.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-3960/"}
