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-2020-11579 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Chadhaajay Phpkb. 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-2020-11579/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-11579/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-11579","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-11579/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-11579","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cx9f-9g5f-369f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"PHPKB knowledge base","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can disclose local files via the installer test-connection script if MySQL local data infile is enabled or PHP is outdated.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"phpkb","vendor":"chadhaajay"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"}],"description":"An issue was discovered in Chadha PHPKB 9.0 Enterprise Edition. installer/test-connection.php (part of the installation process) allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to disclose local files on hosts running PHP before 7.2.16, or on hosts where the MySQL ALLOW LOCAL DATA INFILE option is enabled.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2020-05-19","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":25,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2020-05-19T13:12:48Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/ShielderSec/CVE-2020-11579","stars":25,"title":"Exploit code for CVE-2020-11579, an arbitrary file disclosure through the MySQL client in PHPKB"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-11579","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"chadhaajay:phpkb","products":["chadhaajay:phpkb"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-11580"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Observable Discrepancy in Argo","id":"CVE-2020-11576"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2020-09-03","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10478","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-12"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10386","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-12"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10389","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-12"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10390","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-12"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10458","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-12"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10497","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-12"}],"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)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can disclose local files via the installer test-connection script if MySQL local data infile is enabled or PHP is outdated.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-11579/"}
