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-2007-5159 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-2007-5159/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-5159/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-5159","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-5159/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-5159","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2007-5159","GHSA-r584-r284-xhg9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux NTFS driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local users in the fuse group can escalate privileges to read and write arbitrary block devices due to incorrect setuid permissions on the mount utility.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ntfs-3g","vendor":"ntfs-3g"}],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The ntfs-3g package before 1.913-2.fc7 in Fedora 7, and an ntfs-3g package in Ubuntu 7.10/Gutsy, assign incorrect permissions (setuid root) to mount.ntfs-3g, which allows local users with fuse group membership to read from and write to arbitrary block devices, possibly involving a file descriptor leak.","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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5159","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5160"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5158"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-10-01","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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"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 users in the fuse group can escalate privileges to read and write arbitrary block devices due to incorrect setuid permissions on the mount utility.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-5159/"}
