It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2021-45679 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2021-45679 is a high-severity vulnerability in Netgear R6900p Firmware, published on 26 Dec 2021. 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-2021-45679 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Netgear R6900p Firmware. 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-2021-45679/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-45679/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-45679","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-45679/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-45679","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w4p5-rqjf-82f3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NETGEAR router","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can escalate privileges on affected NETGEAR routers, potentially gaining administrative control over the device.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"r6900p_firmware","vendor":"netgear"},{"product":"r7000_firmware","vendor":"netgear"},{"product":"r7000p_firmware","vendor":"netgear"},{"product":"rs400_firmware","vendor":"netgear"}],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AC:L/AV:A/A:H/C:H/I:H/PR:H/S:C/UI:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Certain NETGEAR devices are affected by privilege escalation.
