Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-20743 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center. 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-2022-20743/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-20743/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-20743","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-20743/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-20743","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5cj7-j8hc-47xc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Firepower Management Center","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can bypass file upload restrictions to store malicious files, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution with root privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"secure_firewall_management_center","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the web management interface of Cisco Firepower Management Center (FMC) Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to bypass security protections and upload malicious files to the affected system. This vulnerability is due to improper validation of files uploaded to the web management interface of Cisco FMC Software.

A successful exploit could allow the attacker to store malicious files on the device, which they could access later to conduct additional attacks, including executing arbitrary code on the affected device with root privileges.","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":"Cisco Firepower Management Center File Upload Security Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-20743","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:secure_firewall_management_center","products":["cisco:secure_firewall_management_center"],"type":"file_upload","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cisco Firepower Management Center Software Information Disclosure Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-20744"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Weak cryptography in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software","id":"CVE-2022-20742"},"products":["Cisco Firepower Management Center"],"published":"2022-05-03","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Firewall Management Center Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel","id":"CVE-2026-20079","kev_date_added":"2026-09-09","published":"2026-03-04"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC) Software and Cisco Security Cloud Control (SCC) Firewall Management Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2026-20131","kev_date_added":"2026-03-19","published":"2026-03-04"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center Use of Hard-coded Password","id":"CVE-2026-20316","kev_date_added":"2026-07-29","published":"2026-07-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center Software Radius Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-20265","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-08-14"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Command injection in Cisco Firepower Management Center","id":"CVE-2024-20424","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-23"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Missing authorization in Cisco Firepower Management Center","id":"CVE-2023-20048","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-01"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cisco Firepower Management Center Lightweight Directory Access Protocol Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2019-16028","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-23"}],"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":"2024-11-06","vendors":["Cisco"]},"summary":"Authenticated attackers can bypass file upload restrictions to store malicious files, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution with root privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-20743/"}
