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-2020-16991 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Azure Sphere. 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-2020-16991/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-16991/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-16991","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-16991/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-16991","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5wcg-gp2m-75xf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Azure Sphere OS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass security restrictions to execute unsigned code on Azure Sphere devices, compromising system integrity.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"azure_sphere","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L/E:U/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Azure Sphere Unsigned Code Execution Vulnerability","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":"Azure Sphere Unsigned Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-16991","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Azure Sphere Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-16992"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Azure Sphere Information Disclosure Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-16990"},"products":["Azure Sphere"],"published":"2020-11-11","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Azure Sphere Unsigned Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2021-27080","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-11"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Azure Sphere Unsigned Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2021-28460","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-13"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Azure Sphere Unsigned Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-16970","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-11-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-35608","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-22"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Azure Sphere Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2021-26429","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-12"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Azure Sphere Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-16992","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-11-11"},{"cvss_score":7.3,"headline":"Azure Sphere Unsigned Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-16984","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-11-11"}],"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":"2024-09-10","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass security restrictions to execute unsigned code on Azure Sphere devices, compromising system integrity.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-16991/"}
