An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2021-22900 in the wild since at least 3 Nov 2021.\n\nAffected product: Ivanti Connect Secure. 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-2021-22900/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-22900/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-22900","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-22900/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-22900","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j8cw-m86f-rxgw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Pulse Connect Secure","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An authenticated administrator can upload malicious archives to write files, potentially leading to code execution on Pulse Connect Secure devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hackerone","cpe":[{"product":"connect_secure","vendor":"ivanti"},{"product":"pulse_connect_secure","vendor":"pulsesecure"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-669","name":"Incorrect Resource Transfer Between Spheres"},{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"A vulnerability allowed multiple unrestricted uploads in Pulse Connect Secure before 9.1R11.4 that could lead to an authenticated administrator to perform a file write via a maliciously crafted archive upload in the administrator web interface.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"exploited"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Unrestricted File Upload","id":"CVE-2021-22900","indexable":true,"kev":{"dateAdded":"2021-11-03","dueDate":"2022-05-03","knownRansomwareCampaignUse":"Unknown","product":"Pulse Connect Secure","requiredAction":"Apply updates per vendor instructions.","vendorProject":"Ivanti","vulnerabilityName":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Unrestricted File Upload Vulnerability"},"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ivanti:connect_secure","products":["ivanti:connect_secure","pulsesecure:pulse_connect_secure"],"type":"file_upload","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"curl 7.75.0 through 7.76.1 suffers from a use-after-free vulnerability resulting in already freed memory being used when a TLS 1.3 session t","id":"CVE-2021-22901"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Command Injection","id":"CVE-2021-22899"},"products":["Pulse Secure Secure"],"published":"2021-05-27","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2021-22893","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-04-23"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Arbitrary File Read","id":"CVE-2019-11510","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2019-05-08"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Ivanti Connect Secure and Policy Secure Command Injection","id":"CVE-2024-21887","kev_date_added":"2024-01-10","published":"2024-01-12"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Ivanti Connect Secure, Policy Secure, and ZTA Gateways Stack-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2025-22457","kev_date_added":"2025-04-04","published":"2025-04-03"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Ivanti Connect Secure, Policy Secure, and ZTA Gateways Stack-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2025-0282","kev_date_added":"2025-01-08","published":"2025-01-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Collaboration Suite Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2021-22894","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-05-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Command Injection","id":"CVE-2021-22899","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-05-27"}],"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":"open","licence":"CC0 1.0","name":"CISA KEV"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"active","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-10-21","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An authenticated administrator can upload malicious archives to write files, potentially leading to code execution on Pulse Connect Secure devices.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-22900/"}
