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-2014-3204 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Canonical Ubuntu Linux. 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-2014-3204/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3204/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-3204","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3204/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-3204","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qc2w-7hh9-mj28","UBUNTU-CVE-2014-3204"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ubuntu Unity desktop","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Physically proximate attackers can bypass the Unity lock screen via keyboard shortcuts to execute arbitrary commands on Ubuntu systems.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"canonical","cpe":[{"product":"unity","vendor":"ayatana_project"},{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"}],"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-264","name":null}],"description":"Unity before 7.2.1, as used in Ubuntu 14.04, does not properly handle keyboard shortcuts, which allows physically proximate attackers to bypass the lock screen and execute arbitrary commands, as demonstrated by right-clicking on the indicator bar and then pressing the ALT and F2 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":true,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3204","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux"],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3205"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3203"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-05-06","related":[{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-5195","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-08-07"},{"cvss_score":4.4,"headline":"Unity before 7.2.1 does not properly handle entry activation, which allows physically proximate attackers to bypass the lock screen by holdi","id":"CVE-2014-3202","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-06"},{"cvss_score":4.4,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3203","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-06"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"Physically proximate attackers can bypass the Unity lock screen via keyboard shortcuts to execute arbitrary commands on Ubuntu systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3204/"}
