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-2012-2679 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-2012-2679/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-2679/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-2679","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-2679/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-2679","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cpqq-ch36-7c84","RHSA-2012:1369"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Red Hat RHN Client","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can read sensitive configuration action logs due to weak file permissions in the Red Hat Network Configuration Client.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"rhncfg","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":2.1,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Red Hat Network (RHN) Configuration Client (rhncfg-client) in rhncfg before 5.10.27-8 uses weak permissions (world-readable) for /var/log/rhncfg-actions, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information about the rhncfg-client actions by reading the file.","ecosystems":["Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:5","Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:6"],"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":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2679","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2012"},"n_packages":8,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2680"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:5","fixed":["0:5.10.27-8.el5sat"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rhncfg","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/rhncfg","source":"RHSA-2012:1369"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:5","fixed":["0:5.10.27-8.el5sat"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rhncfg-actions","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/rhncfg-actions","source":"RHSA-2012:1369"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:5","fixed":["0:5.10.27-8.el5sat"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rhncfg-client","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/rhncfg-client","source":"RHSA-2012:1369"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:5","fixed":["0:5.10.27-8.el5sat"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rhncfg-management","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/rhncfg-management","source":"RHSA-2012:1369"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:6","fixed":["0:5.10.27-8.el6sat"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rhncfg","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/rhncfg","source":"RHSA-2012:1369"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:6","fixed":["0:5.10.27-8.el6sat"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rhncfg-actions","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/rhncfg-actions","source":"RHSA-2012:1369"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:6","fixed":["0:5.10.27-8.el6sat"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rhncfg-client","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/rhncfg-client","source":"RHSA-2012:1369"},{"ecosystem":"Red Hat:rhel_rhn_tools:6","fixed":["0:5.10.27-8.el6sat"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rhncfg-management","purl":"pkg:rpm/redhat/rhncfg-management","source":"RHSA-2012:1369"}],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2678"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-10-22","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Red Hat","prefix":"RHSA"},{"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":"Local attackers can read sensitive configuration action logs due to weak file permissions in the Red Hat Network Configuration Client.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-2679/"}
