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-2022-20864 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco IOS XE Software. 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-2022-20864/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-20864/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-20864","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-20864/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-20864","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-286c-pf2q-9ghm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Catalyst Switch","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated local attacker can read files or reset the enable password by rebooting into ROMMON due to improper file permissions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"ios_xe_rom_monitor","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-538","name":"Insertion of Sensitive Information into Externally-Accessible File or Directory"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the password-recovery disable feature of Cisco IOS XE ROM Monitor (ROMMON) Software for Cisco Catalyst Switches could allow an unauthenticated, local attacker to recover the configuration or reset the enable password.
