Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2008-6518 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-2008-6518/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6518/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-6518","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6518/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-6518","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2mw5-m74c-gphm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VidiScript web application","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can upload malicious PHP files as avatars to execute arbitrary code on the VidiScript web application.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"vidiscript","vendor":"vidiscript"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in the profile feature in VidiScript allows registered remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code by uploading a PHP file as an Avatar, then accessing the avatar via a direct request.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2008-08-18","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-08-18","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"6259","stars":null,"title":"VidiScript (Avatar) - Arbitrary File Upload"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6518","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"file_upload","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6519"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6517"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-03-25","related":[],"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":"Authenticated users can upload malicious PHP files as avatars to execute arbitrary code on the VidiScript web application.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6518/"}
