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-2020-8781 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2020-8781/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8781/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-8781","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8781/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-8781","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-63m6-4m5x-24xm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ALEOS operating system","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A low-privilege process can escalate to root privileges due to lack of input sanitization in the UpdateRebootMgr service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"aleos","vendor":"sierrawireless"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Lack of input sanitization in UpdateRebootMgr service of ALEOS 4.11 and later allow an escalation to root from a low-privilege process.","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 n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8781","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":"ALEOS LAN-Side RPC Service Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-8782"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8778"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2020-10-06","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Sierra Wireless AirLink ALEOS Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type","id":"CVE-2018-4063","kev_date_added":"2025-12-12","published":"2019-05-06"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-2897","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-08-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-11851","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-10251","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-04"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"ALEOS AceManager Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2019-11857","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-08-21"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Command injection in ALEOS","id":"CVE-2022-46649","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-10"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Improper input leads to DoS","id":"CVE-2023-40465","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-04"}],"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":"A low-privilege process can escalate to root privileges due to lack of input sanitization in the UpdateRebootMgr service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8781/"}
