An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2021-44077 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2021-44077 is a critical missing authorization vulnerability in Zohocorp Manageengine Servicedesk Plus, published on 29 Nov 2021. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2021-44077 in the wild since at least 1 Dec 2021.\n\nAffected product: Zohocorp Manageengine Servicedesk 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-2021-44077/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-44077/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-44077","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-44077/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-44077","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xm89-vxjx-jvcg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ITSM ServiceDesk","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can execute arbitrary code via vulnerable RestAPI endpoints in ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus and SupportCenter Plus.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"manageengine_servicedesk_plus","vendor":"zohocorp"},{"product":"manageengine_servicedesk_plus_msp","vendor":"zohocorp"},{"product":"manageengine_supportcenter_plus","vendor":"zohocorp"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"}],"description":"Zoho ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus before 11306, ServiceDesk Plus MSP before 10530, and SupportCenter Plus before 11014 are vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution.
