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-2023-20043 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco CX Cloud Agent. 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-2023-20043/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20043/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-20043","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20043/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-20043","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mxhq-87fx-96v9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco CX Cloud Agent","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local attacker can elevate privileges to take complete control of the device via insecure file permissions in Cisco CX Cloud Agent.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"cx_cloud_agent","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":6.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"},{"id":"CWE-708","name":"Incorrect Ownership Assignment"}],"description":"A vulnerability in Cisco CX Cloud Agent of could allow an authenticated, local attacker to elevate their privileges.\r\n\r This vulnerability is due to insecure file permissions.
