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-2021-20025 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: SonicWall Email Security Virtual 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-2021-20025/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-20025/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-20025","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-20025/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-20025","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cxhc-5wv5-j4r5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"configuration_change","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Email Security Appliance","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can remotely access freshly installed SonicWall Email Security appliances using default credentials before they are connected to MySonicWall.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"sonicwall","cpe":[{"product":"email_security_virtual_appliance","vendor":"sonicwall"}],"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":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"}],"description":"SonicWall Email Security Virtual Appliance version 10.0.9 and earlier versions contain a default username and a password that is used at initial setup.
