CVE-2017-8032 has a CVSS score of 6.6/10, rated MEDIUM. Review your exposure and patch according to your risk tolerance.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2017-8032?

CVE-2017-8032 affects the following packages: org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven), org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven), org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven), org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server (Maven). Ecosystems affected: Maven.

How do I fix CVE-2017-8032?

Update org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server to 3.6.13 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2017-8032 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2017-8032 in my Maven dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for org.cloudfoundry.identity:cloudfoundry-identity-server, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

How do I mitigate CVE-2017-8032 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

Close the privilege gap rather than the entry point: audit which accounts, roles and service identities can reach the affected operation, drop the component to the least privilege it actually needs, and review file and directory permissions created by earlier installs — a default left in place is what makes this reachable.

Is CVE-2017-8032 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2017-8032 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

What is the EPSS score for CVE-2017-8032?

CVE-2017-8032 has an EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) score of 0.9%, placing it in the 59th percentile of all CVEs. EPSS is maintained by FIRST.org and estimates the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days. This score indicates relatively lower exploitation probability, though the CVSS severity should still guide your patching priority.

What type of vulnerability is CVE-2017-8032?

CVE-2017-8032 is classified as Improper Privilege Management (CWE-269). This weakness type describe the underlying flaw category, which helps determine the potential impact and the right class of mitigation.
