Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2017-9940 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2017-9940 is a high-severity path traversal vulnerability in SiPass integrated All versions before V2.70, published on 8 Aug 2017. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-9940 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: SiPass integrated All versions before V2.70. 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-2017-9940/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9940/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-9940","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9940/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-9940","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9jh8-jxmj-8c4h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Siemens SiPass integrated","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Low-privileged attackers can read or write files on the SiPass integrated server file system via network access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[{"product":"sipass_integrated","vendor":"siemens"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"A vulnerability was discovered in Siemens SiPass integrated (All versions before V2.70) that could allow an attacker with access to a low-privileged user account to read or write files on the file system of the SiPass integrated server over the network.","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":"Path traversal in SiPass integrated All versions before V2.70","id":"CVE-2017-9940","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Other in SiPass integrated All versions before V2.70","id":"CVE-2017-9941"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in SiPass integrated All versions before V2.70","id":"CVE-2017-9939"},"products":["SiPass integrated All versions before V2.70"],"published":"2017-08-08","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-5409","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-11-01"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in SiPass integrated V2.76","id":"CVE-2021-44524","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-12-14"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in SiPass integrated All versions before V2.70","id":"CVE-2017-9939","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-08"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Missing authorization in SiPass integrated V2.76","id":"CVE-2021-44523","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-12-14"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Memory corruption in SiPass integrated","id":"CVE-2022-31812","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in SiPass integrated All versions before V2.70","id":"CVE-2017-9942","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-08"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Low-privileged attackers can read or write files on the SiPass integrated server file system via network access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9940/"}
