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-2011-4954 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: cobbler. 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-2011-4954/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4954/index.md)","id":"CVE-2011-4954","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4954/index.md","name":"CVE-2011-4954","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gpw3-rh6p-7pp4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cobbler provisioning server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by exploiting an insecure PYTHON_EGG_CACHE location in Cobbler.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"cobbler","vendor":"cobblerd"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"cobbler has local privilege escalation via the use of insecure location for PYTHON_EGG_CACHE","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":"Privilege escalation in cobbler","id":"CVE-2011-4954","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2011"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4955"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cobbler vulnerable to code injection via unsafe YAML loading","id":"CVE-2011-4953"},"products":["cobbler"],"published":"2019-11-19","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cobbler Improper Validation of Security Tokens","id":"CVE-2018-1000226","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-08-20"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cobbler Web Interface Lacks CSRF Protection","id":"CVE-2011-4952","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-19"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cobbler XSS Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-1000225","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-08-20"},{"cvss_score":4,"headline":"Cobbler Path Traversal vulnerability","id":"CVE-2014-3225","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-14"}],"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":["cobbler"]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by exploiting an insecure PYTHON_EGG_CACHE location in Cobbler.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-4954/"}
