It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2020-8446 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-2020-8446/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8446/index.md)","id":"CVE-2020-8446","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8446/index.md","name":"CVE-2020-8446","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-96pq-2p2q-gx9m"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Host Intrusion Detection System","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit path traversal in OSSEC-HIDS to write arbitrary files via crafted syscheck messages sent to the analysisd socket.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ossec","vendor":"ossec"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"In OSSEC-HIDS 2.7 through 3.5.0, the server component responsible for log analysis (ossec-analysisd) is vulnerable to path traversal (with write access) via crafted syscheck messages written directly to the analysisd UNIX domain socket by a local user.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8446","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2020"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8447"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8445"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2020-01-30","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8443","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8444","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8445","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8447","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8442","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-30"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-19666","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-11-29"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-28040","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-05"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"A local attacker can exploit path traversal in OSSEC-HIDS to write arbitrary files via crafted syscheck messages sent to the analysisd socket.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2020-8446/"}
