An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-29478 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: CA Service Catalog. 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-2020-29478/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-29478/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-29478","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-29478/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-29478","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6j4h-fwwv-9pxx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"CA Service Catalog","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A remote attacker can cause a denial of service in CA Service Catalog via the default Setup Utility configuration.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ca","cpe":[{"product":"ca_service_catalog","vendor":"broadcom"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-258","name":"Empty Password in Configuration File"}],"description":"CA Service Catalog 17.2 and 17.3 contain a vulnerability in the default configuration of the Setup Utility that may allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service condition.","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":"Denial of service in CA Service Catalog","id":"CVE-2020-29478","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-29479"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-29477"},"products":["CA Service Catalog"],"published":"2021-01-05","related":[],"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":["CA Technologies, A Broadcom Company"]},"summary":"A remote attacker can cause a denial of service in CA Service Catalog via the default Setup Utility configuration.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-29478/"}
