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-2017-8805 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Debian ftpsync before 20171017. 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-2017-8805/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8805/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-8805","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8805/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-8805","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-8805","GHSA-f9qc-p869-hxxw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Debian ftpsync","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can perform directory traversal via a crafted upstream mirror because Debian ftpsync fails to use the rsync --safe-links option.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"debian","cpe":[{"product":"ftpsync","vendor":"debian"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Debian ftpsync before 20171017 does not use the rsync --safe-links option, which allows remote attackers to conduct directory traversal attacks via a crafted upstream mirror.","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 Debian ftpsync before 20171017","id":"CVE-2017-8805","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in PostgreSQL-related scripts that are specific to Debian and Ubuntu","id":"CVE-2017-8806"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8804"},"products":["Debian ftpsync before 20171017"],"published":"2017-10-17","related":[],"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 a crafted upstream mirror because Debian ftpsync fails to use the rsync --safe-links option.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8805/"}
