Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-32465 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Trendmicro Apex One. 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-2021-32465/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-32465/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-32465","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-32465/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-32465","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pmr9-53h4-q7gr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Trend Micro Apex One","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers with low-privileged code execution can bypass authentication in Trend Micro Apex One and OfficeScan products.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trendmicro","cpe":[{"product":"apex_one","vendor":"trendmicro"},{"product":"officescan","vendor":"trendmicro"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-281","name":"Improper Preservation of Permissions"}],"description":"An incorrect permission preservation vulnerability in Trend Micro Apex One, Apex One as a Service and OfficeScan XG SP1 could allow a remote user to perform an attack and bypass authentication on affected installations.
