Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-6538 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Hitachi Vantara System Management Unit (SMU). 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-2023-6538/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6538/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-6538","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6538/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-6538","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6r92-968h-m757"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Hitachi Vantara SMU","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated administrators can access restricted SMU configuration backup data via URL manipulation, leading to unintended information disclosure.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HITVAN","cpe":[{"product":"system_management_unit_firmware","vendor":"hitachi"}],"cvss":{"score":7.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-285","name":"Improper Authorization"}],"description":"SMU versions prior to 14.8.7825.01 are susceptible to unintended information disclosure, through URL manipulation.
