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-2004-0966 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ubuntu Ubuntu 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-2004-0966/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0966/index.md)","id":"CVE-2004-0966","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0966/index.md","name":"CVE-2004-0966","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2004-0966","GHSA-6w8j-6937-5hm5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GNU gettext utilities","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can overwrite arbitrary files via symlink attacks on temporary files in GNU gettext scripts, requiring local access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"gettext","vendor":"gnu"},{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"ubuntu"}],"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":"The (1) autopoint and (2) gettextize scripts in the GNU gettext package 1.14 and later versions, as used in Trustix Secure Linux 1.5 through 2.1 and other operating systems, allows local users to overwrite files via a symlink attack on temporary files.","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-2004-0966","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ubuntu:ubuntu_linux","products":["ubuntu:ubuntu_linux"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2004"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0967"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0965"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2004-10-20","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":"Local attackers can overwrite arbitrary files via symlink attacks on temporary files in GNU gettext scripts, requiring local access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0966/"}
