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-2024-7516 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Broadcom Fabric Operating System. 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-2024-7516/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-7516/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-7516","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-7516/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-7516","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q7j7-7r72-9h66"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Brocade Fabric OS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Brocade Fabric OS fails to enforce strict SSH host key checking, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to hijack remote service sessions.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"brocade","cpe":[{"product":"fabric_operating_system","vendor":"broadcom"}],"cvss":{"score":7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:H/SC:H/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"},{"id":"CWE-322","name":"Key Exchange without Entity Authentication"}],"description":"A vulnerability in Brocade Fabric OS versions before 9.2.2 could allow man-in-the-middle attackers to conduct remote Service Session Hijacking that may arise from the attacker's ability to forge an SSH key while the Brocade Fabric OS Switch is performing various remote operations initiated by a switch admin.","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":"Brocade Fabric OS before 9.2.2 does not enforce strict host key checking","id":"CVE-2024-7516","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"broadcom:fabric_operating_system","products":["broadcom:fabric_operating_system"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privileged escalation via crafted use of portcfg command","id":"CVE-2024-7517"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in Compact GuardLogix 5380 (5069 – L3zS2)","id":"CVE-2024-7515"},"products":["Fabric OS"],"published":"2024-11-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Broadcom Brocade Fabric OS Code Injection","id":"CVE-2025-1976","kev_date_added":"2025-04-28","published":"2025-04-24"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2021-22555","kev_date_added":"2025-10-06","published":"2021-07-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2022-33186","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2021-27797","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2020-15371","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2020-15373","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2020-15374","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"}],"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":"2024-11-21","vendors":["Brocade"]},"summary":"Brocade Fabric OS fails to enforce strict SSH host key checking, allowing man-in-the-middle attackers to hijack remote service sessions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-7516/"}
