Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2020-7526 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2020-7526 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in PowerChute Business Edition software V9.0.x and earlier, published on 31 Aug 2020. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-7526 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: PowerChute Business Edition software V9.0.x and earlier. 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-2020-7526/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7526/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-7526","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7526/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-7526","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3mjc-cvm2-cpqw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PowerChute Business Edition","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via improper input validation during shutdown events in PowerChute Business Edition.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"schneider","cpe":[{"product":"powerchute","vendor":"apc"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Improper Input Validation vulnerability exists in PowerChute Business Edition (software V9.0.x and earlier) which could cause remote code execution when a script is executed during a shutdown event.","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":"Code injection in PowerChute Business Edition software V9.0.x and earlier","id":"CVE-2020-7526","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in SoMove V2.8.1 and prior","id":"CVE-2020-7527"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in All hardware versions of spaceLYnk and Wiser for KNX (formerly homeLYnk)","id":"CVE-2020-7525"},"products":["PowerChute Business Edition software V9.0.x and earlier"],"published":"2020-08-31","related":[{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1242","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-12-10"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Misconfiguration in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1924","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-06-28"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-2046","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-05-10"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4263","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-12-07"}],"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":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via improper input validation during shutdown events in PowerChute Business Edition.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-7526/"}
