An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-34331 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Power FW. 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-2022-34331/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-34331/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-34331","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-34331/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-34331","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gjfg-4cm8-4m2j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Power firmware","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass VEPA security configurations on IBM Power systems by exploiting improper handling of maintenance operations on SRIOV network adapters.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"powervm_hypervisor","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"After performing a sequence of Power  FW950, FW1010 maintenance operations a SRIOV network adapter can be improperly configured leading to desired VEPA configuration being disabled.
