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-2014-4991 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- codders-dataset (RubyGems): affected all versions up to 1.3.2.1; no fix listed\n- codders-dataset (RubyGems): affected all versions up to 1.3.2.1; no fix listed\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-2014-4991/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-4991/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-4991","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-4991/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-4991","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-w9vv-fvw8-j6q3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ruby dataset gem","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can read database credentials from process listings due to insecure command-line argument handling in the codders-dataset Ruby gem.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"codders-dataset","vendor":"codders-dataset_project"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"(1) lib/dataset/database/mysql.rb and (2) lib/dataset/database/postgresql.rb in the codders-dataset gem 1.3.2.1 for Ruby place credentials on the mysqldump command line, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information by listing the process.","ecosystems":["RubyGems"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"codders-dataset Process Table Local Plaintext Credential Disclosure","id":"CVE-2014-4991","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2014"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Cap-Strap gem for Ruby places credentials on the useradd command line","id":"CVE-2014-4992"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.3.2.1"],"package":"codders-dataset","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-w9vv-fvw8-j6q3"},{"ecosystem":"RubyGems","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.3.2.1"],"package":"codders-dataset","purl":"pkg:gem/codders-dataset","source":"GHSA-w9vv-fvw8-j6q3"}],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4987"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-01-10","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":"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 read database credentials from process listings due to insecure command-line argument handling in the codders-dataset Ruby gem.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-4991/"}
