An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2020-3162 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2020-3162 is a high-severity denial of service vulnerability in Cisco IoT Field Network Director (IoT-FND), published on 15 Apr 2020. 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-2020-3162 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-2020-3162/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-3162/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-3162","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-3162/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-3162","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qwp9-wc7v-7pg4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco IoT Field Network Director","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated remote attackers can cause a denial of service on Cisco IoT Field Network Director by sending malformed CoAP packets, disrupting IoT endpoint communication.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"iot_field_network_director","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) implementation of Cisco IoT Field Network Director could allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device.
