An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-50940 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM PowerSC. 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-2023-50940/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50940/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-50940","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-50940/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-50940","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f4w8-52pm-ghr9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM PowerSC","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can bypass CORS restrictions to perform privileged actions and retrieve sensitive information from IBM PowerSC.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"powersc","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-697","name":"Incorrect Comparison"},{"id":"CWE-942","name":"Permissive Cross-domain Security Policy with Untrusted Domains"}],"description":"IBM PowerSC 1.3, 2.0, and 2.1 uses Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) which could allow an attacker to carry out privileged actions and retrieve sensitive information as the domain name is not being limited to only trusted domains.
