An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2009-5078 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apple Mac Os X. 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-2009-5078/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-5078/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-5078","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-5078/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-5078","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2009-5078","GHSA-pg77-m46r-9ph2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GNU troff","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can manipulate arbitrary files via crafted documents because GNU troff launches Ghostscript without the -dSAFER option.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mac_os_x","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"groff","vendor":"gnu"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-254","name":null}],"description":"contrib/pdfmark/pdfroff.sh in GNU troff (aka groff) before 1.21 launches the Ghostscript program without the -dSAFER option, which allows remote attackers to create, overwrite, rename, or delete arbitrary files via a crafted document.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-5078","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apple:mac_os_x","products":["apple:mac_os_x"],"type":"other","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-5079"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-5077"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2011-06-30","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU Bourne-Again Shell (Bash) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2014-7169","kev_date_added":"2022-01-28","published":"2014-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU Bourne-Again Shell (Bash) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2014-6271","kev_date_added":"2022-01-28","published":"2014-09-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"PHP-CGI Query String Parameter","id":"CVE-2012-1823","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2012-05-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple macOS Unspecified","id":"CVE-2021-30713","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-09-08"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple macOS Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2019-8526","kev_date_added":"2023-04-17","published":"2019-12-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple OS X Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2015-1130","kev_date_added":"2022-02-10","published":"2015-04-10"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Apple macOS Out-of-Bounds Read","id":"CVE-2022-22674","kev_date_added":"2022-04-04","published":"2022-05-26"}],"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 manipulate arbitrary files via crafted documents because GNU troff launches Ghostscript without the -dSAFER option.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-5078/"}
