It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-1944 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Kubernetes minikube. 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-2023-1944/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1944/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-1944","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1944/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-1944","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-88g7-jhqx-q9gp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"container_or_infrastructure","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Kubernetes minikube","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can gain SSH access to minikube containers using a default password, leading to potential code execution and privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"kubernetes","cpe":[{"product":"minikube","vendor":"kubernetes"}],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"},{"id":"CWE-259","name":"Use of Hard-coded Password"}],"description":"This vulnerability enables ssh access to minikube container using a default password.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"[minikube] ssh server with default password","id":"CVE-2023-1944","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"hardcoded_credentials","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Firefox ESR","id":"CVE-2023-1945"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege Escalation in kOps using GCE/GCP Provider in Gossip Mode","id":"CVE-2023-1943"},"products":["minikube"],"published":"2023-05-24","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"[minikube] Network Port exposure in minikube running on macOS using Docker driver","id":"CVE-2023-1174","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-24"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Minikube RCE via DNS Rebinding","id":"CVE-2018-1002103","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-05"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-01-16","vendors":["Kubernetes"]},"summary":"Attackers can gain SSH access to minikube containers using a default password, leading to potential code execution and privilege escalation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1944/"}
