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-2003-0690 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Kde Kde. 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-2003-0690/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0690/index.md)","id":"CVE-2003-0690","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0690/index.md","name":"CVE-2003-0690","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r868-wrj2-9jfx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"KDE Display Manager","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can gain root privileges by exploiting unverified PAM credential setting failures in KDM, particularly with specific MIT Kerberos configurations.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"kde","vendor":"kde"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"KDM in KDE 3.1.3 and earlier does not verify whether the pam_setcred function call succeeds, which may allow attackers to gain root privileges by triggering error conditions within PAM modules, as demonstrated in certain configurations of the MIT pam_krb5 module.","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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0690","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"kde:kde","products":["kde:kde"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2003"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":13,"next":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2003-0691"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0689"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2003-09-18","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0011","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-02-16"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1670","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-04-28"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Konqueror","id":"CVE-2012-4512","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-08"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-0019","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-01-20"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-1046","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-04-12"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-0970","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-09-01"}],"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":"Attackers can gain root privileges by exploiting unverified PAM credential setting failures in KDM, particularly with specific MIT Kerberos configurations.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0690/"}
