It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2026-85488 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2026-85488 is a high-severity vulnerability in Brocade Active Support Connectivity Gateway, published on 8 Oct 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-85488 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Brocade Active Support Connectivity Gateway. 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-2026-85488/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-85488/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-85488","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-85488/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-85488","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-97j3-qprw-gmrp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Brocade ASCG","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local authenticated users can discover a hardcoded password in Brocade ASCG scripts to escalate privileges on OVA deployments with default settings.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"hardcoded_credentials"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"brocade","cpe":[{"product":"brocade_active_support_connectivity_gateway","vendor":"broadcom"}],"cvss":{"score":7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-798","name":"Use of Hard-coded Credentials"}],"description":"Brocade ASCG before 3.5.0 has a well-known Brocade default password embedded in a script distributed to every customer.
