Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-4486 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Qradar Security Information and Event Manager. 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-2020-4486/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-4486/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-4486","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-4486/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-4486","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9qx2-wch6-c3mw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SIEM software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated user can overwrite or delete arbitrary files in IBM QRadar after WinCollect installation, potentially causing data loss or service disruption.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"qradar_security_information_and_event_manager","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/A:H/I:H/S:U/PR:L/UI:N/AV:N/C:N/AC:L/RC:C/RL:O/E:U","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"IBM QRadar 7.2.0 thorugh 7.2.9 could allow an authenticated user to overwrite or delete arbitrary files due to a flaw after WinCollect installation.
