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-2008-6524 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-2008-6524/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6524/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-6524","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6524/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-6524","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jjjm-vgrm-72p6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"openInvoice web application","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can change arbitrary passwords via modified uid parameter, enabling account takeover and privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"openinvoice","vendor":"cale_dunlap"}],"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-255","name":null}],"description":"resetpass.php in openInvoice 0.90 beta and earlier allows remote authenticated users to change the passwords of arbitrary users via a modified uid parameter.
