An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2021-25265 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2021-25265 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in Sophos Connect Client, published on 22 Mar 2021. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-25265 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Sophos Connect Client. 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-2021-25265/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25265/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-25265","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25265/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-25265","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-558v-8jp5-w94h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Sophos Connect Client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A malicious website can execute arbitrary code remotely on systems running the Sophos Connect Client.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Sophos","cpe":[{"product":"connect","vendor":"sophos"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"A malicious website could execute code remotely in Sophos Connect Client before version 2.1.","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 Sophos Connect Client","id":"CVE-2021-25265","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Intercept X for Mobile (Android)","id":"CVE-2021-25266"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intercept X for MacOS","id":"CVE-2021-25264"},"products":["Sophos Connect Client"],"published":"2021-03-22","related":[{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in Sophos Connect Client","id":"CVE-2022-48310","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-01"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in Sophos Connect Client","id":"CVE-2022-48309","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-01"},{"cvss_score":3.3,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Sophos Connect Client","id":"CVE-2022-4901","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-01"}],"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":"2024-08-03","vendors":["Sophos"]},"summary":"A malicious website can execute arbitrary code remotely on systems running the Sophos Connect Client.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-25265/"}
