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-2008-2015 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-2008-2015/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-2015/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-2015","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-2015/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-2015","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-89pq-qvjv-f582"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WatchFire AppScan","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can exploit path traversal in ActiveX controls to overwrite files, potentially achieving code execution via startup folder manipulation.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"appscan","vendor":"watchfire"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Multiple absolute path traversal vulnerabilities in certain ActiveX controls in WatchFire AppScan 7.0 allow remote attackers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a full pathname in the argument to the (1) CompactSave and (2) SaveSession method in one control, and the (3) saveRecordedExploreToFile method in a different control.
