An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-3697 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Pidgin Pidgin. 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-2014-3697/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3697/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-3697","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3697/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-3697","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wxw5-wrpr-5mpw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Pidgin instant messenger","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can write arbitrary files via a malicious smiley theme archive, requiring user interaction to load the theme.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"pidgin","vendor":"pidgin"}],"cvss":{"score":6.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Absolute path traversal vulnerability in the untar_block function in win32/untar.c in Pidgin before 2.10.10 on Windows allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a drive name in a tar archive of a smiley theme.","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":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3697","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"pidgin:pidgin","products":["pidgin:pidgin"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3698"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3696"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-10-29","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-6490","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-02-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1000030","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-09-05"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-6486","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-02-06"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3185","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-08-29"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1376","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-05-26"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-3841","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-07-17"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-6487","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-02-06"}],"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":"Remote attackers can write arbitrary files via a malicious smiley theme archive, requiring user interaction to load the theme.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3697/"}
