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-2013-4761 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- puppet (RubyGems): affected from 2.7.0; fixed in 2.7.23\n- puppet (RubyGems): affected from 2.7.0; fixed in 2.7.23\n- puppet (RubyGems): affected from 3.2.0; fixed in 3.2.4\n- puppet (RubyGems): affected from 3.2.0; fixed in 3.2.4\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-2013-4761/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-4761/index.md)","id":"CVE-2013-4761","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-4761/index.md","name":"CVE-2013-4761","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2013-4761","GHSA-cj43-9h3w-v976"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Puppet configuration management","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers with local file system access to the Puppet Master can execute arbitrary Ruby programs via the resource_type service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"puppet","vendor":"puppet"},{"product":"puppet_enterprise","vendor":"puppet"},{"product":"puppet","vendor":"puppetlabs"}],"cvss":{"score":5.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Unspecified vulnerability in Puppet 2.7.x before 2.7.23 and 3.2.x before 3.2.4, and Puppet Enterprise 2.8.x before 2.8.3 and 3.0.x before 3.0.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Ruby programs from the master via the resource_type service.
