Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2008-4242 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-2008-4242/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4242/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-4242","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4242/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-4242","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2008-4242","DSA-1689-1","GHSA-hvr6-6w44-9wq6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FTP server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary FTP commands via CSRF by exploiting long command interpretation in ProFTPD, requiring user interaction.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"proftpd","vendor":"proftpd_project"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"ProFTPD 1.3.1 interprets long commands from an FTP client as multiple commands, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks and execute arbitrary FTP commands via a long ftp:// URI that leverages an existing session from the FTP client implementation in a web browser.","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":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4242","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"csrf","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":13,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4243"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4241"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-09-25","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-5815","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-11-08"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0500","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-07-04"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0911","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-02-04"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0831","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-09-25"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0542","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-02-12"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-4816","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-12-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6170","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-11-30"}],"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":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary FTP commands via CSRF by exploiting long command interpretation in ProFTPD, requiring user interaction.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4242/"}
