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-2020-6650 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Eaton UPS Companion Software. 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-2020-6650/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-6650/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-6650","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-6650/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-6650","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6xrc-w97f-j5jp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"UPS companion software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary code on the host machine via an eval injection vulnerability in the update manager of Eaton UPS companion software.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Eaton","cpe":[{"product":"ups_companion","vendor":"eaton"}],"cvss":{"score":8.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"},{"id":"CWE-95","name":"Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code"}],"description":"UPS companion software v1.05 \u0026 Prior is affected by ‘Eval Injection’ vulnerability.
