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-2019-8463 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Check Point Endpoint Security Client for Windows. 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-2019-8463/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8463/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-8463","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8463/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-8463","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3jx2-x7xj-8x2c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Endpoint Security Client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service by writing service log files to non-standard locations in Check Point Endpoint Security Client.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"checkpoint","cpe":[{"product":"endpoint_security_clients","vendor":"checkpoint"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"A denial of service vulnerability was reported in Check Point Endpoint Security Client for Windows before E82.10, that could allow service log file to be written to non-standard locations.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in Check Point Endpoint Security Client for Windows","id":"CVE-2019-8463","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in iOS","id":"CVE-2019-8502"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in Check Point Security Gateway","id":"CVE-2019-8462"},"products":["Check Point Endpoint Security Client for Windows"],"published":"2019-12-23","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":"2024-08-04","vendors":["Check Point"]},"summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service by writing service log files to non-standard locations in Check Point Endpoint Security Client.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8463/"}
