Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2021-22530 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2021-22530 is a high-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in OpenText NetIQ Advance Authentication, published on 28 Aug 2024. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-22530 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: OpenText NetIQ Advance Authentication. 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-2021-22530/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-22530/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-22530","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-22530/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-22530","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2qhq-448h-5333"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NetIQ Advance Authentication","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass account lockout mechanisms during brute force attacks on API logins, potentially compromising user accounts or degrading server performance.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"OpenText","cpe":[{"product":"netiq_advanced_authentication","vendor":"microfocus"}],"cvss":{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-307","name":"Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts"},{"id":"CWE-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"A vulnerability identified in NetIQ Advance Authentication that doesn't enforce account lockout when brute force attack is performed on API based login.
