An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2014-8517 exists.\n\nAffected product: Apple Mac Os X. 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-2014-8517/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8517/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-8517","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8517/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-8517","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2014-8517","GHSA-5gp4-x3wh-cxgj","openSUSE-SU-2024:10306-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NetBSD FTP client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary commands via a pipe character in HTTP redirects when using the tnftp client.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mac_os_x","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"netbsd","vendor":"netbsd"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"The fetch_url function in usr.bin/ftp/fetch.c in tnftp, as used in NetBSD 5.1 through 5.1.4, 5.2 through 5.2.2, 6.0 through 6.0.6, and 6.1 through 6.1.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a | (pipe) character at the end of an HTTP redirect.","ecosystems":["openSUSE:Tumbleweed"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":2,"first_seen":"2014-10-28","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2014-10-28","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/unix/http/tnftp_savefile","stars":null,"title":"tnftp \"savefile\" Arbitrary Command Execution"},{"date":"2014-12-02","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"35427","stars":null,"title":"tnftp (FreeBSD 8/9/10) - 'tnftp' Client Side"},{"date":"2017-11-03","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"43112","stars":null,"title":"tnftp - 'savefile' Arbitrary Command Execution (Metasploit)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8517","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apple:mac_os_x","products":["apple:mac_os_x","netbsd:netbsd"],"type":"command_injection","year":"2014"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":10,"next":{"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8518"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Tumbleweed","fixed":["20151004-1.3"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"tnftp","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/tnftp\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Tumbleweed","source":"openSUSE-SU-2024:10306-1"}],"prev":{"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8516"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-11-17","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU Bourne-Again Shell (Bash) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2014-7169","kev_date_added":"2022-01-28","published":"2014-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"GNU Bourne-Again Shell (Bash) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2014-6271","kev_date_added":"2022-01-28","published":"2014-09-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"PHP-CGI Query String Parameter","id":"CVE-2012-1823","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2012-05-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple macOS Unspecified","id":"CVE-2021-30713","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-09-08"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple macOS Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2019-8526","kev_date_added":"2023-04-17","published":"2019-12-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple OS X Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2015-1130","kev_date_added":"2022-02-10","published":"2015-04-10"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Apple macOS Out-of-Bounds Read","id":"CVE-2022-22674","kev_date_added":"2022-04-04","published":"2022-05-26"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"openSUSE"},{"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary commands via a pipe character in HTTP redirects when using the tnftp client.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8517/"}
