An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-26079 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco IoT Field Network Director (IoT-FND). 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-2020-26079/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-26079/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-26079","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-26079/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-26079","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9hxq-8wvw-w8gj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco IoT Field Network Director","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An authenticated remote attacker can obtain password hashes by exploiting insufficient credential protection in the Cisco IoT Field Network Director web UI.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"iot_field_network_director","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":4.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-522","name":"Insufficiently Protected Credentials"},{"id":"CWE-256","name":"Plaintext Storage of a Password"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the web UI of Cisco IoT Field Network Director (FND) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to obtain hashes of user passwords on an affected device.
