An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-7677 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.apache.ranger:ranger (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 0.7.1\n- org.apache.ranger:ranger (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 0.7.1\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-2017-7677/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7677/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-7677","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7677/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-7677","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-ffjh-fjgg-mfpq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Apache Ranger authorization","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Apache Ranger fails to check write permissions for creating tables in external locations, allowing unauthorized data modification.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"ranger","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-862","name":"Missing Authorization"}],"description":"In environments that use external location for hive tables, Hive Authorizer in Apache Ranger before 0.7.1 should be checking RWX permission for create table.","ecosystems":["Maven"],"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":"Moderate severity vulnerability that affects org.apache.ranger:ranger","id":"CVE-2017-7677","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2017"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Moderate severity vulnerability that affects org.apache.spark:spark-core_2.10 and org.apache.spark:spark-core_2.11","id":"CVE-2017-7678"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["0.7.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.ranger:ranger","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-ffjh-fjgg-mfpq"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["0.7.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"org.apache.ranger:ranger","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.ranger/ranger","source":"GHSA-ffjh-fjgg-mfpq"}],"prev":{"headline":"Policy resource matcher in Apache Ranger before 0.7.1 ignores characters after '' wildcard character","id":"CVE-2017-7676"},"products":["Apache Ranger"],"published":"2017-06-14","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: OS Command Injection via Username in UnixUserGroupBuilder","id":"CVE-2026-28672","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: SQL Injection vulnerability in lookup functionality","id":"CVE-2026-32227","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Privilege Escalation via URL Parameter","id":"CVE-2026-40920","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Remote Code Execution via JDBC URL Injection","id":"CVE-2026-42537","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Remote Code Execution via Arbitrary Class Instantiation","id":"CVE-2026-44416","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in GraalScriptEngineCreator","id":"CVE-2026-55799","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache Ranger: Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in NashornScriptEngineCreator","id":"CVE-2025-59059","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-03"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"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":["Apache Software Foundation"]},"summary":"Apache Ranger fails to check write permissions for creating tables in external locations, allowing unauthorized data modification.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7677/"}
