An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2023-36498 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2023-36498 is a high-severity command injection vulnerability in Tp-Link ER7206 Omada Gigabit VPN Router, published on 6 Feb 2024. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-36498 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Tp-Link ER7206 Omada Gigabit VPN Router. 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-2023-36498/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-36498/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-36498","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-36498/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-36498","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mj59-82hp-pgf4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VPN router","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can inject arbitrary commands via HTTP requests to gain unrestricted shell access on Tp-Link ER7206 routers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"talos","cpe":[{"product":"er7206_firmware","vendor":"tp-link"}],"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"}],"description":"A post-authentication command injection vulnerability exists in the PPTP client functionality of Tp-Link ER7206 Omada Gigabit VPN Router 1.3.0 build 20230322 Rel.70591.
