Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2017-5254 exists.\n\nAffected product: Cambium Networks ePMP. 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-2017-5254/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-5254/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-5254","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-5254/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-5254","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c8wj-4p37-jwxf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"ePMP firmware","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Low-privileged users can escalate to admin by disabling client-side protections to change other users' passwords in Cambium ePMP firmware.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"rapid7","cpe":[{"product":"epmp_1000_firmware","vendor":"cambiumnetworks"},{"product":"epmp_2000_firmware","vendor":"cambiumnetworks"}],"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"},{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"In version 3.5 and prior of Cambium Networks ePMP firmware, the non-administrative users 'installer' and 'home' have the capability of changing passwords for other accounts, including admin, after disabling a client-side protection mechanism.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":null,"kind":"metasploit","ref":"auxiliary/scanner/http/epmp1000_reset_pass","stars":null,"title":"Cambium ePMP 1000 Account Password Reset"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in ePMP","id":"CVE-2017-5254","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":"Command injection in ePMP","id":"CVE-2017-5255"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Weak cryptography in Insteon Hub Firmware","id":"CVE-2017-5251"},"products":["ePMP"],"published":"2017-12-20","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Command injection in ePMP","id":"CVE-2017-5255","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-20"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in ePMP","id":"CVE-2017-5256","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-20"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in ePMP","id":"CVE-2017-5257","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-20"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in ePMP","id":"CVE-2017-5258","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-20"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["Cambium Networks"]},"summary":"Low-privileged users can escalate to admin by disabling client-side protections to change other users' passwords in Cambium ePMP firmware.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-5254/"}
