Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-15093 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Powerdns Recursor. 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-2017-15093/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15093/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-15093","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-15093/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-15093","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-15093","GHSA-jc23-xg6p-84pp","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-15093"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"PowerDNS Recursor","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated user can inject configuration directives into PowerDNS Recursor when api-config-dir is enabled, potentially leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"recursor","vendor":"powerdns"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"When api-config-dir is set to a non-empty value, which is not the case by default, the API in PowerDNS Recursor 4.x up to and including 4.0.6 and 3.x up to and including 3.7.4 allows an authorized user to update the Recursor's ACL by adding and removing netmasks, and to configure forward zones.
