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-2020-36164 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2020-36164/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36164/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-36164","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36164/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-36164","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qr7j-48q9-7wvf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Veritas Enterprise Vault","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A low-privileged user can create a malicious OpenSSL config file to achieve arbitrary code execution as SYSTEM when the service starts.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"enterprise_vault","vendor":"veritas"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AC:L/AV:L/A:H/C:H/I:H/PR:N/S:C/UI:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"An issue was discovered in Veritas Enterprise Vault through 14.0. On start-up, it loads the OpenSSL library. The OpenSSL library then attempts to load the openssl.cnf configuration file (which does not exist) at the following locations in both the System drive (typically C:\\) and the product's installation drive (typically not C:\\): \\Isode\\etc\\ssl\\openssl.cnf (on SMTP Server) or \\user\\ssl\\openssl.cnf (on other affected components). By default, on Windows systems, users can create directories under C:\\. A low privileged user can create a openssl.cnf configuration file to load a malicious OpenSSL engine, resulting in arbitrary code execution as SYSTEM when the service starts. This gives the attacker administrator access on the system, allowing the attacker (by default) to access all data, access all installed applications, etc. This vulnerability only affects a server with MTP Server, SMTP Archiving IMAP Server, IMAP Archiving, Vault Cloud Adapter, NetApp File server, or File System Archiving for NetApp as File Server.","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":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-36164","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-36165"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-36163"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2021-01-06","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-53909","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-53910","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-53911","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-53912","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-53913","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-53914","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-53915","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-24"}],"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":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A low-privileged user can create a malicious OpenSSL config file to achieve arbitrary code execution as SYSTEM when the service starts.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-36164/"}
