An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2012-0294 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Symantec Endpoint Protection. 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-2012-0294/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-0294/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-0294","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-0294/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-0294","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-586v-xv8v-gc4w"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Symantec Endpoint Protection","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers with high privileges can delete arbitrary files via directory traversal in the Symantec Endpoint Protection management console.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"endpoint_protection","vendor":"symantec"}],"cvss":{"score":5.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Directory traversal vulnerability in the Manager service in the management console in Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) 12.1 before 12.1 RU1-MP1 allows remote attackers to delete files via unspecified vectors.","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-2012-0294","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"symantec:endpoint_protection","products":["symantec:endpoint_protection"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-0295"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-0293"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-05-23","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-0295","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-05-23"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Symantec Endpoint Protection","id":"CVE-2018-5237","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-06-20"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Symantec Endpoint Protection","id":"CVE-2020-5836","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in Symantec Endpoint Protection","id":"CVE-2020-5837","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) and Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition (SEP SBE)","id":"CVE-2020-5820","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Code injection in Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) and Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition (SEP SBE)","id":"CVE-2020-5821","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) and Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition (SEP SBE)","id":"CVE-2020-5822","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-11"}],"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":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers with high privileges can delete arbitrary files via directory traversal in the Symantec Endpoint Protection management console.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-0294/"}
