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-2017-8108 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-2017-8108/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8108/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-8108","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8108/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-8108","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-8108","GHSA-rm6c-xgjf-vhwg","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-8108"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Lynis security auditing tool","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit symlink vulnerabilities in temporary files to write arbitrary data or escalate privileges in Lynis.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"lynis","vendor":"cisofy"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"Unspecified tests in Lynis before 2.5.0 allow local users to write to arbitrary files or possibly gain privileges via a symlink attack on a temporary file.","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-2017-8108","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"SaltStack Salt Information Exposure","id":"CVE-2017-8109"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8106"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-06-08","related":[{"cvss_score":4.2,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-13882","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-18"},{"cvss_score":3.3,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-13033","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-18"},{"cvss_score":3.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3982","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-06-08"},{"cvss_score":3.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3986","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-06-08"}],"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":"Local attackers can exploit symlink vulnerabilities in temporary files to write arbitrary data or escalate privileges in Lynis.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8108/"}
