It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-1932 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- pillow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.1\n- pillow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.1\n- pillow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.3.1\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-2014-1932/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1932/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-1932","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1932/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-1932","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2014-1932","GHSA-x895-2wrm-hvp7","PYSEC-2014-22"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python image library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can overwrite arbitrary files and read sensitive data via symlink attacks on temporary files in PIL and Pillow.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"pillow","vendor":"python"},{"product":"python_imaging_library","vendor":"pythonware"}],"cvss":{"score":4.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"The (1) load_djpeg function in JpegImagePlugin.py, (2) Ghostscript function in EpsImagePlugin.py, (3) load function in IptcImagePlugin.py, and (4) _copy function in Image.py in Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier and Pillow before 2.3.1 do not properly create temporary files, which allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files and obtain sensitive information via a symlink attack on the temporary file.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"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":"PIL and Pillow Vulnerable to Symlink Attack on Tmpfiles","id":"CVE-2014-1932","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":"python:pillow","products":["python:pillow"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2014"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Pillow Temporary file name leakage","id":"CVE-2014-1933"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["2.3.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"pillow","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-x895-2wrm-hvp7"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["2.3.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"pillow","purl":"pkg:pypi/pillow","source":"GHSA-x895-2wrm-hvp7"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["2.3.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"pillow","purl":"pkg:pypi/pillow","source":"PYSEC-2014-22"}],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1931"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-04-17","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Pillow command injection","id":"CVE-2014-3007","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-04-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Pillow multi-frame loaders can reuse stale native image storage after mode transitions","id":"CVE-2026-96639","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Buffer over-flow in Pillow","id":"CVE-2022-30595","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Out of bounds write in Pillow","id":"CVE-2021-25289","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-19"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Pillow Integer overflow in ImagingResampleHorizontal","id":"CVE-2016-4009","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-04-13"},{"cvss_score":9.2,"headline":"Pillow: Heap buffer overflow in _tiffWriteProc when saving TIFF to BytesIO","id":"CVE-2026-112393","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-19"},{"cvss_score":9.2,"headline":"Pillow: Heap buffer overflow in FlashPix (FPX) JPEG decoding leads to code execution","id":"CVE-2026-112398","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-19"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"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 overwrite arbitrary files and read sensitive data via symlink attacks on temporary files in PIL and Pillow.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1932/"}
