It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-38817 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: VMware NSX, VMware Cloud Foundation. 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-2024-38817/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-38817/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-38817","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-38817/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-38817","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vvj9-jphf-5vfh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware NSX","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers with CLI access can execute arbitrary commands as root on VMware NSX Edge nodes, requiring immediate patching.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"vmware","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"VMware NSX contains a command injection vulnerability. \n\nA malicious actor with access to the NSX Edge CLI terminal may be able to craft malicious payloads to execute arbitrary commands on the operating system as root.","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":"Command injection in VMware NSX, VMware Cloud Foundation","id":"CVE-2024-38817","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in VMware NSX, VMware Cloud Foundation","id":"CVE-2024-38818"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"CVE-2024-38816: Path traversal vulnerability in functional web frameworks","id":"CVE-2024-38816"},"products":["VMware NSX, VMware Cloud Foundation"],"published":"2024-10-09","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-10-10","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers with CLI access can execute arbitrary commands as root on VMware NSX Edge nodes, requiring immediate patching.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-38817/"}
