It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2011-2777 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2011-2777/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-2777/index.md)","id":"CVE-2011-2777","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-2777/index.md","name":"CVE-2011-2777","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2011-2777","GHSA-v38r-g9qq-wg8m"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux acpid daemon","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by exploiting improper pidof usage in the acpid power button script.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"acpid2","vendor":"tedfelix"}],"cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"samples/powerbtn/powerbtn.sh in acpid (aka acpid2) 2.0.16 and earlier uses the pidof program incorrectly, which allows local users to gain privileges by running a program with the name kded4 and a DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment variable containing commands.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2011-12-10","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2011-12-10","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"18228","stars":null,"title":"Acpid 1:2.0.10-1ubuntu2 (Ubuntu 11.04/11.10) - Boundary Crossing Privilege Escalation"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-2777","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2011"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-2778"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-2776"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-08-29","related":[{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Misconfiguration in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4578","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-08-29"}],"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":"2024-09-17","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by exploiting improper pidof usage in the acpid power button script.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-2777/"}
