Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-4302 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Cognos Analytics. 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-2020-4302/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-4302/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-4302","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-4302/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-4302","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-ph7h-74xq-935c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Cognos Analytics","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code by tricking users into opening malicious CSV files in IBM Cognos Analytics.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"cognos_analytics","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/UI:R/I:L/S:U/C:L/A:L/PR:L/AV:N/AC:L/RC:C/E:U/RL:O","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1236","name":"Improper Neutralization of Formula Elements in a CSV File"}],"description":"IBM Cognos Analytics 11.0 and 11.1 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by a CSV injection.
