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-2021-35231 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: SolarWinds Kiwi Syslog Server. 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-2021-35231/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-35231/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-35231","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-35231/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-35231","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fjg7-wf5v-82h5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Syslog server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can escalate privileges by exploiting an unquoted service path in the Kiwi Syslog Server installation wizard.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"SolarWinds","cpe":[{"product":"kiwi_syslog_server","vendor":"solarwinds"}],"cvss":{"score":6.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-428","name":"Unquoted Search Path or Element"}],"description":"As a result of an unquoted service path vulnerability present in the Kiwi Syslog Server Installation Wizard, a local attacker could gain escalated privileges by inserting an executable into the path of the affected service or uninstall entry.
