An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2026-76779 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2026-76779 is a high-severity authentication bypass vulnerability in Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) Policy Manager, published on 9 Oct 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-76779 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) Policy Manager. 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-2026-76779/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76779/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-76779","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76779/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-76779","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2fw7-4gg3-crqx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Dell SCG Policy Manager","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated remote attacker can bypass authentication restrictions to gain elevated privileges and unauthorized access to Dell Secure Connect Gateway Policy Manager.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"policy_manager_for_secure_connect_gateway","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":7.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-307","name":"Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts"}],"description":"Dell Secure Connect Gateway (SCG) Policy Manager, versions prior to 5.34.00.16, contains an Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts vulnerability.
