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-2004-0881 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Gentoo Linux. 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-2004-0881/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0881/index.md)","id":"CVE-2004-0881","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0881/index.md","name":"CVE-2004-0881","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rgff-wqff-xq3q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Mail retrieval tool","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can write arbitrary files via symlink attacks when getmail runs as root, potentially leading to privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"linux","vendor":"gentoo"},{"product":"getmail","vendor":"getmail"},{"product":"slackware_linux","vendor":"slackware"}],"cvss":{"score":2.1,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"getmail 4.x before 4.2.0, and other versions before 3.2.5, when run as root, allows local users to write files in arbitrary directories via a symlink attack on subdirectories in the maildir.","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-2004-0881","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"gentoo:linux","products":["gentoo:linux","slackware:slackware_linux"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2004"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0882"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0880"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2004-09-24","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0914","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-12-15"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1037","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-11-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1034","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-11-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0891","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-10-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1337","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-09-01"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0649","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-07-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0226","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-05-05"}],"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":"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 attackers can write arbitrary files via symlink attacks when getmail runs as root, potentially leading to privilege escalation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0881/"}
