An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2007-6683 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-2007-6683/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-6683/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-6683","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-6683/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-6683","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2007-6683","GHSA-v5fx-4grc-7jmr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VLC media player","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can overwrite arbitrary files via crafted playlist filenames or MP3 metadata in VLC media player.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"vlc","vendor":"videolan"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"The browser plugin in VideoLAN VLC 0.8.6d allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via (1) the :demuxdump-file option in a filename in a playlist, or (2) a EXTVLCOPT statement in an MP3 file, possibly an argument injection vulnerability.","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":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6683","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6684"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6682"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-01-17","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-6440","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-28"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6681","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-01-17"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6682","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-01-17"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1768","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-04-24"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1769","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-04-24"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1881","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-04-17"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1489","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-03-25"}],"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":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can overwrite arbitrary files via crafted playlist filenames or MP3 metadata in VLC media player.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-6683/"}
