An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2020-7119 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2020-7119 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Aruba ALE ClearPass C1000 S-1200 R4 HW-Based Appliance, published on 4 Sep 2020. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-7119 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Aruba ALE ClearPass C1000 S-1200 R4 HW-Based Appliance. 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-2020-7119/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7119/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-7119","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7119/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-7119","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2gvr-mfrj-8q6g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Aruba ALE appliance","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An authenticated admin can escalate privileges to modify files as a privileged OS user on Aruba ALE appliances.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hpe","cpe":[{"product":"analytics_and_location_engine","vendor":"arubanetworks"}],"cvss":{"score":4.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"A vulnerability exists in the Aruba Analytics and Location Engine (ALE) web management interface 2.1.0.2 and earlier firmware that allows an already authenticated administrative user to arbitrarily modify files as an underlying privileged operating system user.","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":"Privilege escalation in Aruba ALE ClearPass C1000 S-1200 R4 HW-Based Appliance","id":"CVE-2020-7119","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager","id":"CVE-2020-7120"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"CVE was unused by HPE.","id":"CVE-2020-7118"},"products":["Aruba ALE ClearPass C1000 S-1200 R4 HW-Based Appliance"],"published":"2020-09-04","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Unauthenticated Remote Unauthorized Access Vulnerability in HPE Networking Analytics and Location Engine (ALE)","id":"CVE-2026-76708","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Unauthenticated Remote Arbitrary File Write Vulnerability in HPE Networking Analytics and Location Engine (ALE)","id":"CVE-2026-76709","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in ALE","id":"CVE-2026-76710","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Unauthenticated Remote Data Injection Vulnerability in HPE Networking Analytics and Location Engine (ALE)","id":"CVE-2026-76711","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":7.3,"headline":"Information disclosure in ALE","id":"CVE-2026-76712","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Authenticated Remote File System Access Vulnerability in HPE Networking Analytics and Location Engine (ALE)","id":"CVE-2026-76713","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Command injection in ALE","id":"CVE-2026-76714","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-22"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An authenticated admin can escalate privileges to modify files as a privileged OS user on Aruba ALE appliances.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7119/"}
