An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2006-6888 exists.\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-2006-6888/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6888/index.md)","id":"CVE-2006-6888","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6888/index.md","name":"CVE-2006-6888","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vh2g-rpmx-8c64"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"P-News web application","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can obtain administrative credentials by directly accessing the user data file due to insufficient access controls.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"p-news","vendor":"p-news"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"P-News 1.16 and 1.17 store sensitive information under the web root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to obtain the administrative account name and password hash via a direct request for db/user.dat.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2006-12-31","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2006-12-31","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"3054","stars":null,"title":"P-News 1.16/1.17 - 'user.dat' Remote Password Disclosure"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6888","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2006"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6889"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6887"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-01-05","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-5434","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-10-20"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can obtain administrative credentials by directly accessing the user data file due to insufficient access controls.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6888/"}
