An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-27560 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: HCL VersionVault Express. 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-2022-27560/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27560/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-27560","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27560/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-27560","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4h2r-5vfh-9q54"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Version control server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"HCL VersionVault Express exposes administrator credentials, allowing attackers to gain privileged access to the version control system.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HCL","cpe":[{"product":"versionvault_express","vendor":"hcltech"}],"cvss":{"score":6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-522","name":"Insufficiently Protected Credentials"}],"description":"HCL VersionVault Express exposes administrator credentials.","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":"An insufficiently protected credential vulnerability affects HCL VersionVault Express","id":"CVE-2022-27560","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"hardcoded_credentials","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"HCL Traveler is susceptible to a Reflected Cross-Site Scripting vulnerability in the web admin (LotusTraveler.nsf)","id":"CVE-2022-27561"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"HCL iNotes is susceptible to a Broken Password Strength Checks vulnerability.","id":"CVE-2022-27558"},"products":["HCL VersionVault Express"],"published":"2022-08-30","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"A Security Misconfiguration vulnerability affects HCL VersionVault Express","id":"CVE-2021-27779","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-25"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Overload/denial of service affects HCL VersionVault Express","id":"CVE-2022-27563","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-30"}],"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":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["HCL Software"]},"summary":"HCL VersionVault Express exposes administrator credentials, allowing attackers to gain privileged access to the version control system.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27560/"}
