It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2008-5724 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-2008-5724/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5724/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-5724","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5724/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-5724","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5cvq-8gr9-5xpq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ESET Smart Security","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by sending a crafted IOCTL request to the ESET Smart Security firewall driver, overwriting memory.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"smart_security","vendor":"eset"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The Personal Firewall driver (aka epfw.sys) 3.0.672.0 and earlier in ESET Smart Security 3.0.672 and earlier allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted IRP in a certain METHOD_NEITHER IOCTL request to \\Device\\Epfw that overwrites portions of memory.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2008-12-18","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-12-18","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"7516","stars":null,"title":"ESET Smart Security 3.0.672 - 'epfw.sys' Local Privilege Escalation"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5724","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5725"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5723"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-12-26","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5527","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-12-12"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-7107","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-08-28"},{"cvss_score":4.5,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-5160","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-08-25"}],"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":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by sending a crafted IOCTL request to the ESET Smart Security firewall driver, overwriting memory.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5724/"}
