Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-27782 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: HCL Software BigFix Mobile. 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-2021-27782/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-27782/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-27782","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-27782/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-27782","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-93v4-p5mh-4hr7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"BigFix Mobile Server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can brute-force admin passwords due to missing lockout mechanisms, potentially gaining unauthorized access to the management interface.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HCL","cpe":[{"product":"bigfix_mobile","vendor":"hcltech"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-307","name":"Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts"}],"description":"HCL BigFix Mobile / Modern Client Management Admin and Config UI passwords can be brute-forced.\nUser should be locked out for multiple invalid attempts.","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":"HCL BigFix Mobile / Modern Client Management Server passwords are susceptible to a brute-force attack","id":"CVE-2021-27782","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"HCL BigFix Mobile / Modern Client Management is vulnerable to sensitive information exposure","id":"CVE-2021-27783"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"HCL BigFix Mobile / Modern Client Management is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting","id":"CVE-2021-27781"},"products":["BigFix Mobile"],"published":"2023-01-19","related":[{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"HCL BigFix Mobile / Modern Client Management is vulnerable to sensitive information exposure","id":"CVE-2021-27783","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-25"},{"cvss_score":6.6,"headline":"HCL BigFix Mobile can be affected by a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-28014","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-26"},{"cvss_score":6.6,"headline":"HCL BigFix Mobile / Modern Client Management is vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting","id":"CVE-2021-27781","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-27"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"HCL BigFix Modern Client Management (MCM) is affected by an insecure Content Security Policy (CSP)","id":"CVE-2025-0276","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-10-16"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"HCL BigFix Mobile is affected by an insecure Content Security Policy (CSP)","id":"CVE-2025-0277","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-10-16"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"HCL BigFix Mobile can be affected by a command injection vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-28012","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-26"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-02","vendors":["HCL Software"]},"summary":"Attackers can brute-force admin passwords due to missing lockout mechanisms, potentially gaining unauthorized access to the management interface.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-27782/"}
