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-2023-38994 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2023-38994/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-38994/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-38994","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-38994/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-38994","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-79jx-q243-6wc7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Univention Corporate Server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Local attackers with SSH access can read plaintext LDAP passwords from process lists, enabling privilege escalation in Univention Corporate Server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"univention_corporate_server","vendor":"univention"}],"cvss":{"score":7.9,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AC:L/AV:L/A:N/C:H/I:H/PR:H/S:C/UI:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-668","name":"Exposure of Resource to Wrong Sphere"}],"description":"The 'check_univention_joinstatus' prometheus monitoring script (and other scripts) in UCS 5.0-5 revealed the LDAP plaintext password of the machine account in the process list allowing attackers with local ssh access to gain higher privileges and perform followup attacks.
