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-2008-6790 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-2008-6790/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6790/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-6790","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6790/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-6790","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4m2r-f2c6-44g4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Photo Gallery","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can gain administrative privileges by modifying the username parameter in the admin module of MindDezign Photo Gallery.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"photo_gallery","vendor":"minddezign"}],"cvss":{"score":5.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"The admin module in MindDezign Photo Gallery 2.2 allows remote attackers to add administrative users and gain privileges via a modified username parameter in an edit account action to index.php.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2008-10-23","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-10-23","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"6820","stars":null,"title":"MindDezign Photo Gallery 2.2 - Arbitrary Add Admin"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6790","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6791"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6789"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-05-04","related":[{"cvss_score":5.1,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6788","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-05-04"},{"cvss_score":5.1,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6789","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-05-04"}],"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":"Remote attackers can gain administrative privileges by modifying the username parameter in the admin module of MindDezign Photo Gallery.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6790/"}
