It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2025-40581 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2025-40581 is a high-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403, published on 13 May 2025. 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-2025-40581 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Siemens SCALANCE LPE9403. 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-2025-40581/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40581/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-40581","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40581/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-40581","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xww6-q5p3-h6pp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"SCALANCE LPE9403","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can bypass authentication in the SINEMA Remote Connect Edge Client to read and modify configuration parameters on SCALANCE LPE9403 devices.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[{"product":"scalance_lpe9403_firmware","vendor":"siemens"}],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-288","name":"Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been identified in SCALANCE LPE9403 (6GK5998-3GS00-2AC2) (All versions \u003c V2.1 HF0 with SINEMA Remote Connect Edge Client installed).
