An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-5802 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Hewlett Packard Enterprise Vertica Analytics Platform. 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-2017-5802/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-5802/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-5802","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-5802/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-5802","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mrfr-p4j4-54cw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vertica Analytics Platform","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can gain privileged access to the HPE Vertica Analytics Platform database system.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hpe","cpe":[{"product":"vertica","vendor":"opentext"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"A Remote Gain Privileged Access vulnerability in HPE Vertica Analytics Platform version v4.1 and later was found.","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":"Privilege escalation in Vertica Analytics Platform","id":"CVE-2017-5802","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in NonStop Servers using SSH Service","id":"CVE-2017-5803"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Business Process Monitor","id":"CVE-2017-5801"},"products":["Vertica Analytics Platform"],"published":"2018-02-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2002","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-04-20"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-6867","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-11-04"},{"cvss_score":5.1,"headline":"Improper neutralization of input during web page generation vulnerability has been discovered in OpenText™ Vertica.","id":"CVE-2025-12453","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-13"},{"cvss_score":5.1,"headline":"Improper neutralization of input during web page generation vulnerability has been discovered in OpenText™ Vertica.","id":"CVE-2025-12454","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-13"},{"cvss_score":5.1,"headline":"Username Enumeration Observable Response Discrepancy vulnerability has been discovered in OpenText™ Vertica.","id":"CVE-2025-12455","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-13"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"OpenText Vertica Management console might be prone to bypass via crafted requests","id":"CVE-2023-7248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-15"}],"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["Hewlett Packard Enterprise"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can gain privileged access to the HPE Vertica Analytics Platform database system.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-5802/"}
