An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2017-6168 exists.\n\nAffected product: F5 Big-Ip Analytics. 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-2017-6168/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6168/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-6168","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6168/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-6168","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j523-gf5p-f8pm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"BIG-IP load balancer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can recover plaintext or perform man-in-the-middle attacks via Bleichenbacher vulnerability in Client SSL profiles on BIG-IP devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"weak_cryptography"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"f5","cpe":[{"product":"big-ip_afm","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_analytics","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_apm","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_application_acceleration_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_asm","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_link_controller","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_ltm","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_pem","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"websafe","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":7.4,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-203","name":"Observable Discrepancy"}],"description":"On BIG-IP versions 11.6.0-11.6.2 (fixed in 11.6.2 HF1), 12.0.0-12.1.2 HF1 (fixed in 12.1.2 HF2), or 13.0.0-13.0.0 HF2 (fixed in 13.0.0 HF3) a virtual server configured with a Client SSL profile may be vulnerable to an Adaptive Chosen Ciphertext attack (AKA Bleichenbacher attack) against RSA, which when exploited, may result in plaintext recovery of encrypted messages and/or a Man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attack, despite the attacker not having gained access to the server's private key itself, aka a ROBOT attack.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2009-06-17","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2009-06-17","kind":"metasploit","ref":"auxiliary/scanner/ssl/bleichenbacher_oracle","stars":null,"title":"Scanner for Bleichenbacher Oracle in RSA PKCS #1 v1.5"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6168","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"f5:big-ip_analytics","products":["f5:big-ip_analytics","f5:big-ip_application_acceleration_manager","f5:big-ip_link_controller"],"type":"weak_cryptography","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in BIG-IP PEM","id":"CVE-2017-6169"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Race condition in BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, Link Controller, PEM, WebSafe","id":"CVE-2017-6167"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-11-17","related":[{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Denial of service in BIG-IP LTM, AAM, AFM, Analytics, APM, ASM, DNS, Link Controller, PEM, and WebSafe","id":"CVE-2017-6166","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-22"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can recover plaintext or perform man-in-the-middle attacks via Bleichenbacher vulnerability in Client SSL profiles on BIG-IP devices.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6168/"}
