It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2001-1494 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-2001-1494/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1494/index.md)","id":"CVE-2001-1494","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1494/index.md","name":"CVE-2001-1494","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2001-1494","GHSA-8gpj-8888-5722"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux utility","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local users can overwrite arbitrary files via hardlink manipulation in the script command, requiring root execution to trigger the vulnerability.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"cvlan","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"integrated_management_suit","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"interactive_response","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"intuity_lx","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"message_networking","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"messaging_storage_server","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"util-linux","vendor":"kernel"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"script command in the util-linux package before 2.11n allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files by setting a hardlink from the typescript log file to any file on the system, then having root execute the script command.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1494","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2001"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1495"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1491"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-06-21","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0494","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-08-05"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"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":"Local users can overwrite arbitrary files via hardlink manipulation in the script command, requiring root execution to trigger the vulnerability.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1494/"}
