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-2025-59172 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ericsson Packet Core Controller (PCC). 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-2025-59172/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-59172/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-59172","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-59172/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-59172","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8j5f-6vjg-rf7w"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ericsson Packet Core Controller","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code as root on Ericsson Packet Core Controller devices due to improper neutralization of OS command elements.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ERIC","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"Ericsson Packet Core Controller (PCC) versions prior to 1.38 contain an Improper Neutralization of Special Elements vulnerability allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code 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":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-59172","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in Packet Core Controller","id":"CVE-2025-59174"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Advantech DeviceOn/iEdge Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2025-59171"},"products":["Packet Core Controller (PCC)"],"published":"2026-07-27","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":"2026-07-27","vendors":["Ericsson"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code as root on Ericsson Packet Core Controller devices due to improper neutralization of OS command elements.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-59172/"}
