Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-52238 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Siemens RUGGEDCOM RST2228. 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-2023-52238/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52238/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-52238","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-52238/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-52238","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jfvv-8342-x746"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"RUGGEDCOM managed switch","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A low-privileged user can retrieve the MACSEC key from the web server, allowing decryption of ethernet frames.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":2.3,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been identified in RUGGEDCOM RST2228 (All versions \u003c V5.9.0), RUGGEDCOM RST2228P (All versions \u003c V5.9.0).
