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-2006-7162 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-2006-7162/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-7162/index.md)","id":"CVE-2006-7162","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-7162/index.md","name":"CVE-2006-7162","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2006-7162","GHSA-72fv-g98m-465j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PuTTY SSH client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can read sensitive private keys and session logs due to weak file permissions in PuTTY.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"putty","vendor":"putty"}],"cvss":{"score":1.9,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"PuTTY 0.59 and earlier uses weak file permissions for (1) ppk files containing private keys generated by puttygen and (2) session logs created by putty, which allows local users to gain sensitive information by reading these 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":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-7162","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":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-7163"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection vulnerability in giris_yap.asp in Hazir Site 2.0 allows remote attackers to bypass authentication via the (1) k_a class or (2) sifre parameter.","id":"CVE-2006-7161"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-03-07","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1008","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-12-01"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-17067","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-01"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-36367","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6167","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-01-30"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-33500","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0467","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-02-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1440","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-02-13"}],"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can read sensitive private keys and session logs due to weak file permissions in PuTTY.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-7162/"}
