It can be exploited over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2008-0479 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-2008-0479/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0479/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-0479","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0479/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-0479","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fp7p-c7mx-vx9v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Web Wiz NewsPad","requires_auth":"unknown","summary":"Remote attackers can list arbitrary directories and files in Web Wiz NewsPad via directory traversal in the sub parameter.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"newspad","vendor":"web_wiz"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Directory traversal vulnerability in RTE_file_browser.asp in Web Wiz NewsPad 1.02 allows remote attackers to list arbitrary directories, and .txt and .zip files, via a .....\\\\\\ in the sub parameter.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2008-01-23","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-01-23","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"4972","stars":null,"title":"Web Wiz NewsPad 1.02 - 'sub' Directory Traversal"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0479","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0480"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0478"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-01-29","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)"},{"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 list arbitrary directories and files in Web Wiz NewsPad via directory traversal in the sub parameter.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0479/"}
