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-2007-4252 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-2007-4252/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4252/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-4252","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4252/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-4252","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hx46-g3jf-9qgx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"CHILKAT ASP String","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can overwrite arbitrary files via path traversal in the SaveToFile method of the CHILKAT ASP String ActiveX control.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"asp_string","vendor":"chilkat_software"}],"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":[],"description":"Absolute path traversal vulnerability in a certain ActiveX control in CkString.dll 1.1 and earlier in CHILKAT ASP String allows remote attackers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a full pathname in the first argument to the SaveToFile method, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-3633.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2007-08-05","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2007-08-05","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"4255","stars":null,"title":"CHILKAT ASP String - 'CkString.dll 1.1 SaveToFile()' Insecure Method"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4252","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4253"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4251"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-08-08","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)"},{"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 overwrite arbitrary files via path traversal in the SaveToFile method of the CHILKAT ASP String ActiveX control.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4252/"}
