Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-4973 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven): affected from 2.0.0; fixed in 2.7.4.14\n- org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven): affected from 2.0.0; fixed in 2.7.4.14\n- org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.6.8\n- org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.6.8\n- org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven): affected from 3.10.0; fixed in 3.15.0\n- org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven): affected from 3.10.0; fixed in 3.15.0\n- org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven): affected from 3.7.0; fixed in 3.9.10\n- org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven): affected from 3.7.0; fixed in 3.9.10\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-2017-4973/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-4973/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-4973","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-4973/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-4973","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pgjc-gc7g-p2c6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cloud Foundry UAA","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can elevate privileges via the UAA groups endpoint in Cloud Foundry, requiring an upgrade to secure the identity management service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"cloud_foundry_uaa_bosh","vendor":"cloudfoundry"},{"product":"cloud_foundry_cf","vendor":"pivotal_software"},{"product":"cloud_foundry_uaa","vendor":"pivotal_software"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"An issue was discovered in Cloud Foundry Foundation cf-release versions prior to v257; UAA release 2.x versions prior to v2.7.4.14, 3.6.x versions prior to v3.6.8, 3.9.x versions prior to v3.9.10, and other versions prior to v3.15.0; and UAA bosh release (uaa-release) 13.x versions prior to v13.12, 24.x versions prior to v24.7, and other versions prior to v30.
