It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2015-1318 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2015-1318/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1318/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-1318","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1318/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-1318","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cpww-w9jx-qp3p","UBUNTU-CVE-2015-1318","USN-2569-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ubuntu Apport","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by exploiting a crafted file in the Apport crash reporting system within a container namespace.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"canonical","cpe":[{"product":"apport","vendor":"apport_project"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The crash reporting feature in Apport 2.13 through 2.17.x before 2.17.1 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted usr/share/apport/apport file in a namespace (container).","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":4,"first_seen":"2015-03-31","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":4,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2015-04-17T20:53:29Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/ScottyBauer/CVE-2015-1318","stars":4,"title":"Exploit I used to claim 10% final-grade extra credit in Matthew Might's Compilers class."},{"date":"2015-03-31","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/linux/local/apport_abrt_chroot_priv_esc","stars":null,"title":"Apport / ABRT chroot Privilege Escalation"},{"date":"2015-04-14","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"36746","stars":null,"title":"Apport/Abrt (Ubuntu / Fedora) - Local Privilege Escalation"},{"date":"2015-04-17","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"36782","stars":null,"title":"Apport 2.14.1 (Ubuntu 14.04.2) - Local Privilege Escalation"},{"date":"2018-02-05","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"43971","stars":null,"title":"Apport/ABRT - 'chroot' Local Privilege Escalation (Metasploit)"},{"date":"2018-02-05","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"43971","stars":null,"title":"Apport/ABRT - 'chroot' Local Privilege Escalation (Metasploit)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1318","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1319"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1317"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-04-17","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Denial of service in Apport","id":"CVE-2022-28657","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apport treats the container PID as the global PID when /proc/\u003cglobal_pid\u003e/ is missing","id":"CVE-2018-6552","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-31"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Apport","id":"CVE-2017-14177","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-02"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Apport","id":"CVE-2017-14179","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-02"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Apport","id":"CVE-2017-14180","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-02"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10708","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9949","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-12-17"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-11-03","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by exploiting a crafted file in the Apport crash reporting system within a container namespace.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1318/"}
