An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2021-29908 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2021-29908 is a critical authentication bypass vulnerability in IBM Virtualization Engine TS7700 3957-VEC, published on 6 Oct 2021. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-29908 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Virtualization Engine TS7700 3957-VEC. 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-2021-29908/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-29908/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-29908","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-29908/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-29908","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fwj2-x959-4pvg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM TS7700 Management Interface","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can gain administrative access to the IBM TS7700 Management Interface via a specially crafted URL.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"ts7700_firmware","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/UI:N/S:U/PR:N/AC:L/I:H/A:N/AV:N/C:H/RC:C/E:U/RL:O","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"The IBM TS7700 Management Interface is vulnerable to unauthenticated access.
