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-2008-1694 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-2008-1694/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1694/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-1694","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1694/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-1694","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2008-1694","GHSA-7cqh-9wjj-hhf9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Emacs text editor","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can overwrite arbitrary files via symlink attacks in Emacs vcdiff when using SCCS, requiring local access and specific configuration.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"emacs","vendor":"gnu"},{"product":"sccs","vendor":"gnu"}],"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-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"vcdiff in Emacs 20.7 to 22.1.50, when used with SCCS, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.","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-2008-1694","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":12,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1696"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1693"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-04-21","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-6109","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-12-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-39331","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-53920","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-27"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-30202","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-25"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Command injection in emacs","id":"CVE-2023-2491","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"emacsclient-mail.desktop in Emacs 28.1 through 28.2 is vulnerable to shell command injections through a crafted mailto: URI.","id":"CVE-2023-27985","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"emacsclient-mail.desktop in Emacs 28.1 through 28.2 is vulnerable to Emacs Lisp code injections through a crafted mailto: URI with unescaped","id":"CVE-2023-27986","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-03-09"}],"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":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can overwrite arbitrary files via symlink attacks in Emacs vcdiff when using SCCS, requiring local access and specific configuration.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1694/"}
