An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2009-2420 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apple Safari. 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-2009-2420/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2420/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-2420","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2420/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-2420","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vc59-w22h-6chj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apple Safari browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can read arbitrary files or cause denial of service in Apple Safari via malicious HTML tags exploiting the file protocol handler.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"safari","vendor":"apple"}],"cvss":{"score":5.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Apple Safari 3.2.3 does not properly implement the file: protocol handler, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files or cause a denial of service (launch of multiple Windows Explorer instances) via vectors involving an unspecified HTML tag, possibly a related issue to CVE-2009-1703.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2420","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apple:safari","products":["apple:safari"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2421"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2419"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-07-09","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5780","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-10-09"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1300","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-03-26"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1303","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-03-26"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-1120","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-03-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0137","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-02-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2303","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-07-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2843","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-24"}],"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 read arbitrary files or cause denial of service in Apple Safari via malicious HTML tags exploiting the file protocol handler.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2420/"}
