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-2017-8283 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-2017-8283/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8283/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-8283","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8283/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-8283","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-8283","GHSA-7cgr-cwf8-5c99"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Debian package manager","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can perform directory traversal via crafted Debian source packages due to lack of protection in dpkg-source.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"dpkg","vendor":"debian"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/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":"dpkg-source in dpkg 1.3.0 through 1.18.23 is able to use a non-GNU patch program and does not offer a protection mechanism for blank-indented diff hunks, which allows remote attackers to conduct directory traversal attacks via a crafted Debian source package, as demonstrated by use of dpkg-source on NetBSD.","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-2017-8283","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":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8284"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8282"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-04-26","related":[{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"dpkg-deb: Fix cleanup for control member with restricted directories","id":"CVE-2025-6297","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-01"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in dpkg","id":"CVE-2026-2219","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-07"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-2768","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-06-08"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3127","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-14"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8625","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-01-20"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-1679","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-01-11"}],"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":"Remote attackers can perform directory traversal via crafted Debian source packages due to lack of protection in dpkg-source.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8283/"}
