An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-22966 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: VMware Cloud Director. 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-2022-22966/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-22966/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-22966","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-22966/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-22966","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vjxq-3835-4p27"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware Cloud Director","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated high-privileged users can exploit a remote code execution vulnerability in VMware Cloud Director to gain server access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[{"product":"vcloud_director","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"An authenticated, high privileged malicious actor with network access to the VMware Cloud Director tenant or provider may be able to exploit a remote code execution vulnerability to gain access to the server.","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":"Code injection in VMware Cloud Director","id":"CVE-2022-22966","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Salt's PAM auth fails to reject locked accounts","id":"CVE-2022-22967"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Spring Framework JDK 9+ Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2022-22965"},"products":["VMware Cloud Director"],"published":"2022-04-14","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in VMware vCloud Director for Service Providers (vCD)","id":"CVE-2019-5523","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-01"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in VMware Cloud Director","id":"CVE-2020-3956","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-20"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1211","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-01-17"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated high-privileged users can exploit a remote code execution vulnerability in VMware Cloud Director to gain server access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-22966/"}
