It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-3159 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: ABRT. 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-2015-3159/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-3159/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-3159","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-3159/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-3159","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-77rf-6vjp-rjg6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ABRT bug reporting tool","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit improper environment handling in ABRT to gain elevated privileges on Red Hat systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"automatic_bug_reporting_tool","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The abrt-action-install-debuginfo-to-abrt-cache help program in Automatic Bug Reporting Tool (ABRT) does not properly handle the process environment before invoking abrt-action-install-debuginfo, which allows local users to gain privileges.","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 ABRT","id":"CVE-2015-3159","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"XML external entity in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-3160"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"PicketLink does not properly check role based authorization","id":"CVE-2015-3158"},"products":["ABRT"],"published":"2020-01-14","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in ABRT","id":"CVE-2015-1869","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in ABRT","id":"CVE-2015-3151","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-3315","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-26"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Path traversal in ABRT","id":"CVE-2015-3150","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-14"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1862","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-09"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-5660","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-03-12"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["ABRT"]},"summary":"Local attackers can exploit improper environment handling in ABRT to gain elevated privileges on Red Hat systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-3159/"}
