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-2008-3294 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Vim Vim. 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-2008-3294/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3294/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-3294","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3294/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-3294","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2p55-mr3x-rqxj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Vim text editor","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code during Vim builds with Python support by exploiting a race condition in temporary file permissions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"vim","vendor":"vim"}],"cvss":{"score":3.7,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"src/configure.in in Vim 5.0 through 7.1, when used for a build with Python support, does not ensure that the Makefile-conf temporary file has the intended ownership and permissions, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code by modifying this file during a time window, or by creating it ahead of time with permissions that prevent its modification by configure.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3294","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vim:vim","products":["vim:vim"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3295"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3293"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-07-24","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-20703","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6349","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-02-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6350","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-02-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-5953","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-02-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3075","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3076","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6235","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-02-21"}],"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 execute arbitrary code during Vim builds with Python support by exploiting a race condition in temporary file permissions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3294/"}
