Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-36120 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Storage Virtualize. 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-2025-36120/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-36120/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-36120","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-36120/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-36120","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qwfw-vm52-pf89"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Storage Virtualize","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can escalate privileges in SSH sessions due to incorrect authorization checks in IBM Storage Virtualize.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"storage_virtualize","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-863","name":"Incorrect Authorization"}],"description":"IBM Storage Virtualize 8.4, 8.5, 8.6, and 8.7 could allow an authenticated user to escalate their privileges in an SSH session due to incorrect authorization checks to access resources.","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 Virtualize privilege escalation","id":"CVE-2025-36120","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"HTML Injection Vulnerability in a Specific URL Endpoint of the IBM OpenPages Application","id":"CVE-2025-36121"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"IBM i authentication bypass","id":"CVE-2025-36119"},"products":["Storage Virtualize"],"published":"2025-08-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"IBM FlashSystem authentication bypass","id":"CVE-2025-0159","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-28"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"IBM FlashSystem code execution","id":"CVE-2025-0160","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-02-28"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"IBM Storage Virtualize Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2025-36118","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-17"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"IBM Storage Virtualize information disclosure","id":"CVE-2023-43042","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-12-14"},{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"IBM Storage Virtualize privilege escalation","id":"CVE-2025-1351","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-07"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"IBM Storage Virtualize improper certificate validation","id":"CVE-2023-47700","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-07"}],"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-26","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"Authenticated users can escalate privileges in SSH sessions due to incorrect authorization checks in IBM Storage Virtualize.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-36120/"}
