Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-0191 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- org.apache.karaf:apache-karaf (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 4.2.3\n- org.apache.karaf:apache-karaf (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 4.2.3\n- org.apache.karaf:karaf (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 4.2.3\n- org.apache.karaf:karaf (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 4.2.3\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-2019-0191/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-0191/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-0191","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-0191/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-0191","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-869j-5855-hjpm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Karaf","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can write arbitrary files to the filesystem via malicious .kar archives due to lack of path validation in Apache Karaf.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"karaf","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Apache Karaf kar deployer reads .kar archives and extracts the paths from the \"repository/\" and \"resources/\" entries in the zip file. It then writes out the content of these paths to the Karaf repo and resources directories. However, it doesn't do any validation on the paths in the zip file. This means that a malicious user could craft a .kar file with \"..\" directory names and break out of the directories to write arbitrary content to the filesystem.
