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-2020-4955 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Spectrum Protect Operations Center. 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-2020-4955/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-4955/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-4955","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-4955/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-4955","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jgx4-qxw5-g434"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Spectrum Protect","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges by uploading a malicious DLL via crafted servlet requests in IBM Spectrum Protect Operations Center.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"spectrum_protect_operations_center","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/C:H/S:C/A:H/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/AV:A/I:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"IBM Spectrum Protect Operations Center 7.1 and 8.1could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by improper parameter validation.
