{"id":"CVE-2022-2068","summary":"The c_rehash script allows command injection","details":"In addition to the c_rehash shell command injection identified in CVE-2022-1292, further circumstances where the c_rehash script does not properly sanitise shell metacharacters to prevent command injection were found by code review. When the CVE-2022-1292 was fixed it was not discovered that there are other places in the script where the file names of certificates being hashed were possibly passed to a command executed through the shell. This script is distributed by some operating systems in a manner where it is automatically executed. On such operating systems, an attacker could execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the script. Use of the c_rehash script is considered obsolete and should be replaced by the OpenSSL rehash command line tool. Fixed in OpenSSL 3.0.4 (Affected 3.0.0,3.0.1,3.0.2,3.0.3). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1p (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1o). Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2zf (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2ze).","modified":"2026-05-30T20:28:32.900254Z","published":"2022-06-21T14:45:20.597Z","related":["ALSA-2022:5818","ALSA-2022:6224","CGA-9cfr-3w9x-ff9j","SUSE-SU-2022:2179-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2180-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2181-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2182-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2197-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2251-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2251-2","SUSE-SU-2022:2306-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2308-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2309-1","SUSE-SU-2022:2321-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:12159-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:12178-1","openSUSE-SU-2025:15136-1"],"database_specific":{"unresolved_ranges":[{"extracted_events":[{"last_affected":"Fixed in OpenSSL 3.0.4 (Affected 3.0.0,3.0.1,3.0.2,3.0.3)"},{"last_affected":"Fixed in OpenSSL 1.1.1p (Affected 1.1.1-1.1.1o)"},{"last_affected":"Fixed in OpenSSL 1.0.2zf (Affected 1.0.2-1.0.2ze)"}],"source":"AFFECTED_FIELD"}],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/2xxx/CVE-2022-2068.json","cna_assigner":"openssl"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2024/Nov/0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://cert-portal.siemens.com/productcert/pdf/ssa-332410.pdf"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git%3Ba=commitdiff%3Bh=2c9c35870601b4a44d86ddbf512b38df38285cfa"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git%3Ba=commitdiff%3Bh=7a9c027159fe9e1bbc2cd38a8a2914bff0d5abd9"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git%3Ba=commitdiff%3Bh=9639817dac8bbbaa64d09efad7464ccc405527c7"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv/20220621.txt"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2022/2xxx/CVE-2022-2068.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/6WZZBKUHQFGSKGNXXKICSRPL7AMVW5M5/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/package-announce%40lists.fedoraproject.org/message/VCMNWKERPBKOEBNL7CLTTX3ZZCZLH7XA/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2022-2068"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security.netapp.com/advisory/ntap-20220707-0008/"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.debian.org/security/2022/dsa-5169"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://gitlab.com/fraf0/cve-2022-1292-re_score-analysis"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/openssl/openssl","events":[{"introduced":"e818b74be2170fbe957a07b0da4401c2b694b3b8"},{"fixed":"e818b74be2170fbe957a07b0da4401c2b694b3b8"},{"introduced":"e04bd3433fd84e1861bf258ea37928d9845e6a86"},{"fixed":"e04bd3433fd84e1861bf258ea37928d9845e6a86"},{"introduced":"89cd17a031e022211684eb7eb41190cf1910f9fa"},{"fixed":"54f5fca0d0b15f912e7355a378976cbff12d58fc"}],"database_specific":{"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"1.0.2"},{"fixed":"1.0.2zf"},{"introduced":"1.1.1"},{"fixed":"1.1.1p"},{"introduced":"3.0.0"},{"fixed":"3.0.4"}],"cpe":"cpe:2.3:a:openssl:openssl:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","source":"CPE_RANGE"}}],"versions":["openssl-3.0.3","openssl-3.0.2","openssl-3.0.1","openssl-3.0.0"],"database_specific":{"vanir_signatures":[{"target":{"file":"include/openssl/opensslv.h"},"signature_type":"Line","deprecated":false,"id":"CVE-2022-2068-c377fa22","signature_version":"v1","source":"https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/e04bd3433fd84e1861bf258ea37928d9845e6a86","digest":{"threshold":0.9,"line_hashes":["28170854778703993674264004058177114599","73132526844288570625317440636111911761","177405411499435185068645597737938634778","224809958623850711330610094965797758930","295554444428855106393106961197201359586"]}},{"target":{"file":"crypto/opensslv.h"},"signature_type":"Line","deprecated":false,"id":"CVE-2022-2068-e051451f","signature_version":"v1","source":"https://github.com/openssl/openssl/commit/e818b74be2170fbe957a07b0da4401c2b694b3b8","digest":{"threshold":0.9,"line_hashes":["251633914150035957322733061977107206211","338514574181828579838011565939158652696","76638288692106140328510055542557597351","142922657400765574308962710386922248045","71649992455794854055653842592139575350","65527166711110472566013424527579064967","253196866009476977787139000804413898733","172177136897997206866313011107384691461"]}}],"vanir_signatures_modified":"2026-05-30T20:28:32Z","source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2022-2068.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
