Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-8959 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Opensuse Opensuse. 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-2014-8959/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8959/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-8959","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8959/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-8959","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2014-8959","GHSA-hvw8-56v7-x24q","UBUNTU-CVE-2014-8959"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Database management tool","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated attackers can exploit a directory traversal flaw in phpMyAdmin's GIS editor to include and execute arbitrary local files.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"opensuse","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"phpmyadmin","vendor":"phpmyadmin"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Directory traversal vulnerability in libraries/gis/GIS_Factory.class.php in the GIS editor in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.6, 4.1.x before 4.1.14.7, and 4.2.x before 4.2.12 allows remote authenticated users to include and execute arbitrary local files via a crafted geometry-type parameter.","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":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8959","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"opensuse:opensuse","products":["opensuse:opensuse","phpmyadmin:phpmyadmin"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8960"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8958"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-11-30","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-5957","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-09-28"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-0491","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-04-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2388","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-06-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-1866","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-05-07"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-0492","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-04-16"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-0158","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-10"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4343","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-05-22"}],"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":"Authenticated attackers can exploit a directory traversal flaw in phpMyAdmin's GIS editor to include and execute arbitrary local files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8959/"}
