An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-16788 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2017-16788/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-16788/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-16788","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-16788/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-16788","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8vwq-796w-c5f5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NTP time server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated administrators can exploit a directory traversal flaw in the web interface to write arbitrary files, leading to root privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"lantime_firmware","vendor":"meinbergglobal"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Directory traversal vulnerability in the \"Upload Groupkey\" functionality in the Web Configuration Utility in Meinberg LANTIME devices with firmware before 6.24.004 allows remote authenticated users with Admin-User access to write to arbitrary files and consequently gain root privileges by uploading a file, as demonstrated by storing a file in the cron.d directory.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-16788","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-16789"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-16787"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-12-15","related":[{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-46902","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-04"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Improper Input Validation in Meinberg LTOS","id":"CVE-2023-1731","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-24"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-46903","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-04"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-16786","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-19"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-16787","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-15"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Authenticated administrators can exploit a directory traversal flaw in the web interface to write arbitrary files, leading to root privilege escalation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-16788/"}
