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-2015-0278/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-0278/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-0278","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-0278/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-0278","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hmvq-6hjm-q8hj","MGASA-2015-0186"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"unknown","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"libuv library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can gain elevated privileges due to improper group privilege dropping in the libuv library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"libuv","vendor":"libuv_project"},{"product":"node.js","vendor":"nodejs"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-273","name":"Improper Check for Dropped Privileges"}],"description":"libuv before 0.10.34 does not properly drop group privileges, which allows context-dependent attackers to gain privileges via unspecified vectors.","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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-0278","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"fedoraproject:fedora","products":["fedoraproject:fedora","nodejs:node.js"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-0279"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-0277"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-05-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"PHP-CGI OS Command Injection","id":"CVE-2024-4577","kev_date_added":"2024-06-12","published":"2024-06-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Grafana Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2021-39226","kev_date_added":"2022-08-25","published":"2021-10-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"VMware ESXi and Horizon DaaS OpenSLP Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2019-5544","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2019-12-06"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chromium V8 Type Confusion","id":"CVE-2024-4947","kev_date_added":"2024-05-20","published":"2024-05-15"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chromium Visuals Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2024-4671","kev_date_added":"2024-05-13","published":"2024-05-09"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chromium Mojo Insufficient Data Validation","id":"CVE-2022-3075","kev_date_added":"2022-09-08","published":"2022-09-26"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chromium Indexed DB API Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2021-30633","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-10-08"}],"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":"Attackers can gain elevated privileges due to improper group privilege dropping in the libuv library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-0278/"}
