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-2014-1938 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- rply (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.7.4\n- rply (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.7.4\n- rply (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 0.7.4\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-2014-1938/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1938/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-1938","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1938/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-1938","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2014-1938","GHSA-m8qc-mf6p-pfq9","PYSEC-2019-202","UBUNTU-CVE-2014-1938"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python rply library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"The rply library creates temporary files insecurely, allowing attackers to overwrite files or escalate privileges via symlink attacks.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"rply","vendor":"rply_project"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"python-rply before 0.7.4 insecurely creates temporary files.","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":"Link Following in rply","id":"CVE-2014-1938","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2014"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1939"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["0.7.4"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rply","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-m8qc-mf6p-pfq9"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["0.7.4"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rply","purl":"pkg:pypi/rply","source":"GHSA-m8qc-mf6p-pfq9"},{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["0.7.4"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"rply","purl":"pkg:pypi/rply","source":"PYSEC-2019-202"}],"prev":{"headline":"Gamera before 3.4.1 insecurely creates temporary files.","id":"CVE-2014-1937"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-11-21","related":[],"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":"The rply library creates temporary files insecurely, allowing attackers to overwrite files or escalate privileges via symlink attacks.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-1938/"}
