Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-9278 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: OpenSSH. 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-2014-9278/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-9278/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-9278","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-9278/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-9278","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q38j-wxrx-r48r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"OpenSSH server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated users can bypass local login requirements to log in as another user in Kerberos-enabled OpenSSH environments.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"openssh","vendor":"openbsd"}],"cvss":{"score":4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"The OpenSSH server, as used in Fedora and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and when running in a Kerberos environment, allows remote authenticated users to log in as another user when they are listed in the .k5users file of that user, which might bypass intended authentication requirements that would force a local login.","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-2014-9278","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"openbsd:openssh","products":["openbsd:openssh"],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-9279"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-9277"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-12-06","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0786","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-09-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0693","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-09-17"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-0640","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-04-02"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0144","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-07"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0999","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-11-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0525","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-10-13"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-4478","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-12-06"}],"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 authenticated users can bypass local login requirements to log in as another user in Kerberos-enabled OpenSSH environments.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-9278/"}
