Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-0290 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- www.velocidex.com/golang/velociraptor (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 0.6.7-5\n- www.velocidex.com/golang/velociraptor (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 0.6.7-5\n- www.velocidex.com/golang/velociraptor (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 0.6.7-5\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-2023-0290/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0290/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-0290","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0290/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-0290","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7jf5-fvgf-48c6","GO-2023-1502"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Rapid7 Velociraptor","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An investigator-level user can exploit directory traversal to schedule server-side collections, escalating privileges to administrator level.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"rapid7","cpe":[{"product":"velociraptor","vendor":"rapid7"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"Rapid7 Velociraptor did not properly sanitize the client ID parameter to the CreateCollection API, allowing a directory traversal in where the collection task could be written. It was possible to provide a client id of \"../clients/server\" to schedule the collection for the server (as a server artifact), but only require privileges to schedule collections on the client.\n\nNormally, to schedule an artifact on the server, the COLLECT_SERVER permission is required. This permission is normally only granted to \"administrator\" role. Due to this issue, it is sufficient to have the COLLECT_CLIENT privilege, which is normally granted to the \"investigator\" role.\nTo exploit this vulnerability, the attacker must already have a Velociraptor user account at least \"investigator\" level, and be able to authenticate to the GUI and issue an API call to the backend. Typically, most users deploy Velociraptor with limited access to a trusted group, and most users will already be administrators within the GUI.\n\nThis issue affects Velociraptor versions before 0.6.7-5. Version 0.6.7-5, released January 16, 2023, fixes the issue.","ecosystems":["Go"],"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":"Rapid7 Velociraptor directory traversal in client ID parameter","id":"CVE-2023-0290","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2023"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Quiz And Survey Master \u003c= 8.0.8 - Unauthenticated Arbitrary Media Deletion","id":"CVE-2023-0291"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["0.6.7-5"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"www.velocidex.com/golang/velociraptor","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-7jf5-fvgf-48c6"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["0.6.7-5"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"www.velocidex.com/golang/velociraptor","purl":"pkg:golang/www.velocidex.com/golang/velociraptor","source":"GHSA-7jf5-fvgf-48c6"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["0.6.7-5"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"www.velocidex.com/golang/velociraptor","purl":"pkg:golang/www.velocidex.com/golang/velociraptor","source":"GO-2023-1502"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site Scripting (XSS) - Stored in craigk5n/webcalendar","id":"CVE-2023-0289"},"products":["Velociraptor"],"published":"2023-01-18","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Insufficient permission check in the VQL copy() function","id":"CVE-2023-0242","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-18"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Rapid7 Velociraptor Reflected XSS","id":"CVE-2023-5950","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-06"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Rapid7 Velociraptor Improper Input Validation in Client Message Handler","id":"CVE-2026-5329","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-09"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Velociraptor Query() Plugin Misapplies Permissions To Orgs","id":"CVE-2026-6290","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-15"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Rapid7 Velociraptor Directory Traversal Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-14728","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-12-29"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Unsafe HTML Injection in Artifact Collection Report","id":"CVE-2022-35630","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-07-29"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Velociraptor priviledge escalation via UpdateConfig artifact","id":"CVE-2025-6264","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-20"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"Go Vulnerability Database","prefix":"GO"},{"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-04-03","vendors":["Rapid7"]},"summary":"An investigator-level user can exploit directory traversal to schedule server-side collections, escalating privileges to administrator level.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-0290/"}
