An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2007-4058 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-2007-4058/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4058/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-4058","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4058/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-4058","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cppx-x244-mfpp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware ActiveX control","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary local programs via path traversal in the StartProcess method of an ActiveX control, requiring user interaction.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"vmware","vendor":"emc"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Absolute path traversal vulnerability in a certain ActiveX control in vielib.dll 2.2.5.42958 in EMC VMware 6.0.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary local programs via a full pathname in the first argument to the StartProcess method.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2007-07-29","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2007-07-29","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"4244","stars":null,"title":"VMware Inc 6.0.0 - 'vielib.dll 2.2.5.42958' Remode Code Execution"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4058","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4059"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4057"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-07-30","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4155","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-08-03"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"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 execute arbitrary local programs via path traversal in the StartProcess method of an ActiveX control, requiring user interaction.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4058/"}
