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-2012-6079 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: W3 Total Cache. 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-2012-6079/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6079/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-6079","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6079/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-6079","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cxp7-rf23-r7xf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"cms_plugin","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WordPress caching plugin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can download sensitive cached database information from W3 Total Cache by exploiting exposed hash keys.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"w3_total_cache","vendor":"boldgrid"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"W3 Total Cache before 0.9.2.5 exposes sensitive cached database information which allows remote attackers to download this information via their hash keys.","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":"Information disclosure in Total Cache","id":"CVE-2012-6079","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"MoinMoin Directory Traversal vulnerability","id":"CVE-2012-6080"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Total Cache","id":"CVE-2012-6078"},"products":["Total Cache"],"published":"2019-11-22","related":[{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"W3 Total Cache \u003c= 2.8.1 - Authenticated (Subscriber+) Missing Authorization to Server-Side Request Forgery","id":"CVE-2024-12365","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-01-14"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in Total Cache","id":"CVE-2012-6077","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in Total Cache","id":"CVE-2012-6078","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-6715","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-01"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-9414","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-12-24"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"W3 Total Cache \u003c 2.1.4 - Reflected XSS in Extensions Page (Attribute Context)","id":"CVE-2021-24436","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-19"}],"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":["W3"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can download sensitive cached database information from W3 Total Cache by exploiting exposed hash keys.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6079/"}
