Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-36225 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2021-36225/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-36225/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-36225","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-36225/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-36225","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w72f-88g7-j8wf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Western Digital My Cloud","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Low-privileged users can access REST APIs to upload and install firmware, leading to privilege escalation and potential code execution on Western Digital My Cloud devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"my_cloud_os","vendor":"westerndigital"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","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-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"Western Digital My Cloud devices before OS5 allow REST API access by low-privileged accounts, as demonstrated by API commands for firmware uploads and installation.","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":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-36225","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-36226"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-36224"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2023-02-06","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Authentication Bypass issue in My Cloud OS 5 devices","id":"CVE-2023-22814","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command Injection Vulnerability in Western Digital My Cloud devices","id":"CVE-2022-29842","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-36224","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-36226","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Pre-authenticated stack overflow vulnerability on FTP Service","id":"CVE-2022-22989","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-13"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity Remote Code Execution Vulnerability on Western Digital My Cloud devices.","id":"CVE-2022-22994","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-28"}],"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":"2025-03-26","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Low-privileged users can access REST APIs to upload and install firmware, leading to privilege escalation and potential code execution on Western Digital My Cloud devices.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-36225/"}
