An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-22956 exists.\n\nAffected product: VMware Workspace ONE Access. 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-2022-22956/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-22956/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-22956","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-22956/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-22956","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-54hw-pp59-j3rc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Identity and Access Management","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication in VMware Workspace ONE Access to execute arbitrary operations due to exposed OAuth2 endpoints.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[{"product":"identity_manager","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"vrealize_automation","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"workspace_one_access","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","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-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"VMware Workspace ONE Access has two authentication bypass vulnerabilities (CVE-2022-22955 \u0026 CVE-2022-22956) in the OAuth2 ACS framework.
