It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-31505 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Arlo Q Plus. 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-2021-31505/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31505/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-31505","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31505/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-31505","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-49rv-vwhv-6vcw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Arlo Q Plus camera","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers with physical access can exploit hard-coded SSH credentials in a special boot mode to execute arbitrary code as root.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"zdi","cpe":[{"product":"q_plus_firmware","vendor":"arlo"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"}],"description":"This vulnerability allows attackers with physical access to escalate privileges on affected installations of Arlo Q Plus 1.9.0.3_278.
