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-2024-38320 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Storage Protect Backup-Archive Client. 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-2024-38320/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-38320/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-38320","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-38320/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-38320","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2mvp-p4pm-xcpx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Storage Protect","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Weak cryptographic algorithms in IBM Storage Protect allow attackers to decrypt highly sensitive information.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"weak_cryptography"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"storage_protect","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"storage_protect_for_virtual_environments","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-327","name":"Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm"}],"description":"IBM Storage Protect for Virtual Environments: Data Protection for VMware and Storage Protect Backup-Archive Client 8.1.0.0 through 8.1.23.0 uses weaker than expected cryptographic algorithms that could allow an attacker to decrypt highly sensitive information.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"IBM Storage Protect for Virtual Environments: Data Protection for VMware information disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-38320","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"weak_cryptography","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"IBM Business Automation Workflow information disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-38321"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"IBM Security SOAR code execution","id":"CVE-2024-38319"},"products":["Storage Protect Backup-Archive Client","Storage Protect for Virtual Environments: Data Protection for VMware"],"published":"2025-01-27","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Hardcoded credential in the IBM Storage Protect Snapshot For Windows leads to unauthorized access to system","id":"CVE-2026-12628","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-22"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"IBM Spectrum Protect code execution","id":"CVE-2023-35897","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-06"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"IBM Storage Protect Client is vulnerable to Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2026-13473","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-17"},{"cvss_score":4.4,"headline":"IBM Storage Protect information disclosure","id":"CVE-2023-40368","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-20"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-01-27","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"Weak cryptographic algorithms in IBM Storage Protect allow attackers to decrypt highly sensitive information.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-38320/"}
