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-2017-18196 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-2017-18196/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-18196/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-18196","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-18196/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-18196","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-18196","GHSA-m7cf-9jqx-8xrq","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-18196"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Leptonica image library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can bypass file restrictions in Leptonica by exploiting path duplication in /tmp subdirectories to access or modify unintended files.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"leptonica","vendor":"leptonica"}],"cvss":{"score":3.3,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Leptonica 1.74.4 constructs unintended pathnames (containing duplicated path components) when operating on files in /tmp subdirectories, which might allow local users to bypass intended file restrictions by leveraging access to a directory located deeper within the /tmp directory tree, as demonstrated by /tmp/ANY/PATH/ANY/PATH/input.tif.","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":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18196","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"mxGraph vulnerable to XXE attacks","id":"CVE-2017-18197"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18195"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-02-23","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-7247","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-19"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-7442","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-23"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-7441","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-23"}],"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can bypass file restrictions in Leptonica by exploiting path duplication in /tmp subdirectories to access or modify unintended files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-18196/"}
