An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2023-0669 in the wild since at least 10 Feb 2023, including in ransomware campaigns.\n\nAffected product: Fortra Goanywhere MFT. 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-2023-0669/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0669/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-0669","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0669/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-0669","record":{"aliases":[],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Managed File Transfer","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Pre-authentication attackers can execute arbitrary commands via deserialization in the License Response Servlet of Fortra GoAnywhere MFT.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"rapid7","cpe":[{"product":"goanywhere_managed_file_transfer","vendor":"fortra"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"Fortra (formerly, HelpSystems) GoAnywhere MFT suffers from a pre-authentication command injection vulnerability in the License Response Servlet due to deserializing an arbitrary attacker-controlled object.
