Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-3238 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco IOx. 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-2020-3238/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-3238/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-3238","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-3238/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-3238","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vwph-w88h-2p73"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco IOx Application Framework","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can upload a malicious package to write or modify arbitrary files within the Cisco IOx virtual instance.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"iox","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the Cisco Application Framework component of the Cisco IOx application environment could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to write or modify arbitrary files in the virtual instance that is running on the affected device. The vulnerability is due to insufficient input validation of user-supplied application packages. An attacker who can upload a malicious package within Cisco IOx could exploit the vulnerability to modify arbitrary files. The impacts of a successful exploit are limited to the scope of the virtual instance and do not affect the device that is hosting Cisco IOx.","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":"Cisco IOx Application Framework Arbitrary File Creation Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-3238","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"file_upload","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Multiple Vulnerabilities in Cisco UCS Director and Cisco UCS Director Express for Big Data","id":"CVE-2020-3239"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cisco IOx Application Framework Arbitrary File Overwrite Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-3237"},"products":["Cisco IOx"],"published":"2020-06-03","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Cisco IOx","id":"CVE-2017-3853","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-22"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Path traversal in Cisco Application-Hosting Framework","id":"CVE-2017-3852","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Path traversal in Cisco Application-Hosting Framework","id":"CVE-2017-3851","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-22"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Path traversal in Cisco IOx","id":"CVE-2016-9199","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-12-14"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Cisco IOx Application Framework Local Manager Stored Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-3233","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-03"},{"cvss_score":6.3,"headline":"Cisco IOx Application Framework Arbitrary File Overwrite Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-3237","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-03"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-15","vendors":["Cisco"]},"summary":"An authenticated attacker can upload a malicious package to write or modify arbitrary files within the Cisco IOx virtual instance.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-3238/"}
