An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-20076 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Ios Xe. 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-2023-20076/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20076/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-20076","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20076/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-20076","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q7pv-4cxx-gq42"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco IOx hosting","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can execute arbitrary root commands on the host OS via crafted activation payloads in Cisco IOx.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"807_industrial_integrated_services_router_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"809_industrial_integrated_services_router_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"829_industrial_integrated_services_router_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"cgr1000_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"cgr1240_firmware","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"ic3000_industrial_compute_gateway","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"ios_xe","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"iox","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"ir510_wpan_firmware","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","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-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"},{"id":"CWE-233","name":"Improper Handling of Parameters"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the Cisco IOx application hosting environment could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands as root on the underlying host operating system.
