An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2022-38744 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2022-38744 is a high-severity denial of service vulnerability in Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk Alarm and Events Server, published on 27 Oct 2022. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-38744 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk Alarm and Events Server. 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-2022-38744/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-38744/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-38744","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-38744/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-38744","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3cc5-pgvq-wh26"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Industrial alarm server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can crash the FactoryTalk Alarm and Events service via network connections, causing denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Rockwell","cpe":[{"product":"factorytalk_alarms_and_events","vendor":"rockwellautomation"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"An unauthenticated attacker with network access to a victim's Rockwell Automation FactoryTalk Alarm and \nEvents service could open a connection, causing the service to fault and become unavailable.
