It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2023-27408 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2023-27408 is a low-severity vulnerability in Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403, published on 9 May 2023. 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-2023-27408 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403. 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-2023-27408/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-27408/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-27408","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-27408/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-27408","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-49r4-q83q-h2wr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can modify the i2c mutex file permissions to interfere with data integrity on Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403 devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"misconfiguration"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[{"product":"scalance_lpe9403_firmware","vendor":"siemens"}],"cvss":{"score":3.3,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N/E:P/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-378","name":"Creation of Temporary File With Insecure Permissions"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been identified in SCALANCE LPE9403 (All versions \u003c V2.1).
