Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-20881 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cloud Controller API. 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-2023-20881/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20881/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-20881","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-20881/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-20881","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gwjh-7ghx-8gww"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cloud_service","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cloud Foundry CAPI","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can override other users' syslog drain credentials by exploiting missing authorization checks in Cloud Foundry CAPI.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[{"product":"capi-release","vendor":"cloudfoundry"},{"product":"cf-deployment","vendor":"cloudfoundry"},{"product":"loggregator-agent","vendor":"cloudfoundry"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-295","name":"Improper Certificate Validation"}],"description":"Cloud foundry instances having CAPI version between 1.140 and 1.152.0 along with loggregator-agent v7+ may override other users syslog drain credentials if they're aware of the client certificate used for that syslog drain.
