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-2001-0556 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2001-0556/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-0556/index.md)","id":"CVE-2001-0556","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-0556/index.md","name":"CVE-2001-0556","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cvjw-q229-564h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Text editor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A local attacker can overwrite other users' files via symlink attacks on backup or temporary files during printing operations in NEdit.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"nedit","vendor":"nedit"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Nirvana Editor (NEdit) 5.1.1 and earlier allows a local attacker to overwrite other users' files via a symlink attack on (1) backup files or (2) temporary files used when nedit prints a file or portions of a file.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0556","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2001"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0557"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0555"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2001-07-27","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-08","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A local attacker can overwrite other users' files via symlink attacks on backup or temporary files during printing operations in NEdit.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-0556/"}
