It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2020-0546 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2020-0546 is a high-severity vulnerability in Intel® Optane(TM) DC Persistent Memory Module Management Software, published on 12 Mar 2020. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-0546 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel® Optane(TM) DC Persistent Memory Module Management Software. 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-2020-0546/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-0546/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-0546","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-0546/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-0546","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6ghr-jc6r-mxq8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Optane management software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local attacker can exploit an unquoted service path to escalate privileges or cause denial of service in Intel Optane management software.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[{"product":"optane_dc_persistent_memory_module_management","vendor":"intel"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-428","name":"Unquoted Search Path or Element"}],"description":"Unquoted service path in Intel(R) Optane(TM) DC Persistent Memory Module Management Software before version 1.0.0.3461 may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege and denial of service via local access.","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 Intel® Optane(TM) DC Persistent Memory Module Management Software","id":"CVE-2020-0546","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Data Migration Software","id":"CVE-2020-0547"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in Intel(R) CSME, Intel(R) TXE, and Intel(R) SPS","id":"CVE-2020-0545"},"products":["Intel® Optane(TM) DC Persistent Memory Module Management Software"],"published":"2020-03-12","related":[{"cvss_score":7.3,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Optane(TM) DC Persistent Memory installer for Windows*","id":"CVE-2020-24451","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-02-17"}],"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":"2024-08-04","vendors":["Intel"]},"summary":"An authenticated local attacker can exploit an unquoted service path to escalate privileges or cause denial of service in Intel Optane management software.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-0546/"}
