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-2026-20293 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Unified Computing 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-2026-20293/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-20293/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-20293","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-20293/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-20293","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xv95-6ccg-fmwj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco UCS firmware","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass UEFI Secure Boot to execute unauthorized software on Cisco UCS servers via shell memory write commands.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"enterprise_nfv_infrastructure_software","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"unified_computing_system","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"unified_computing_system_e-series_software","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-749","name":"Exposed Dangerous Method or Function"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Shell implementation of Cisco UCS Servers and UCS-based appliances could allow an authenticated attacker with valid credentials for a user account with the role of user or admin\u0026nbsp;or an unauthenticated attacker with physical access to an affected device to bypass UEFI Secure Boot validation checks and execute unauthorized software.\r\n\r\nThis vulnerability is due to the availability of memory write commands in the UEFI Shell while UEFI Secure Boot is enabled on a device.
