An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-5950 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: F5 Big-Ip Advanced Firewall 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-2020-5950/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-5950/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-5950","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-5950/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-5950","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rjcf-2qpv-xpv2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"BIG-IP load balancer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Reflected XSS in iControl REST allows attackers to compromise the system if an admin user is targeted.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"f5","cpe":[{"product":"big-ip_advanced_firewall_manager","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"On BIG-IP 14.1.0-14.1.2.6, undisclosed endpoints in iControl REST allow for a reflected XSS attack, which could lead to a complete compromise of the BIG-IP system if the victim user is granted the admin role.","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":"Cross-site scripting in BIG-IP","id":"CVE-2020-5950","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"f5:big-ip_advanced_firewall_manager","products":["f5:big-ip_advanced_firewall_manager"],"type":"xss","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-5953"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in BIG-IP","id":"CVE-2020-5949"},"products":["BIG-IP"],"published":"2020-12-11","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"SQL injection in BIG-IP AFM","id":"CVE-2021-23040","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-09-14"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"BIG-IP AFM DoS protection profile vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-59478","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-10-15"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"BIG-IP AFM vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-24312","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-05"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in BIG-IP (AFM, ASM)","id":"CVE-2019-6636","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-03"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"BIG-IP AFM vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-21763","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-14"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"F5 AFM Signature Matching Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-21771","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-14"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"BIG-IP AFM vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-22281","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-01"}],"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":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Reflected XSS in iControl REST allows attackers to compromise the system if an admin user is targeted.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-5950/"}
