It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-20280 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Unified Computing System Central Software. 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-2024-20280/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-20280/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-20280","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-20280/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-20280","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jm5c-w4xp-6794"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco UCS Central","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker with access to a backup file can decrypt sensitive data using a static key, exposing credentials and certificates.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"ucs_central_software","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":6.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"},{"id":"CWE-321","name":"Use of Hard-coded Cryptographic Key"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the backup feature of Cisco UCS Central Software could allow an attacker with access to a backup file to learn sensitive information that is stored in the full state and configuration backup files.\r\n\r\nThis vulnerability is due to a weakness in the encryption method that is used for the backup function.
