Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-25152 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/pterodactyl/wings (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.7.3, 1.11.3\n- github.com/pterodactyl/wings (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.7.3\n- github.com/pterodactyl/wings (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 1.7.3\n- github.com/pterodactyl/wings (Go): affected from 1.11.0; fixed in 1.11.3\n- github.com/pterodactyl/wings (Go): affected from 1.11.0; fixed in 1.11.3\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-2023-25152/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25152/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-25152","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25152/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-25152","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p8r3-83r8-jwj5","GO-2023-1542"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Pterodactyl Wings Daemon","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers with allocated servers can exploit symlink following to modify host files, escalate privileges, or gain remote shell access.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"wings","vendor":"pterodactyl"}],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"Wings is Pterodactyl's server control plane. Affected versions are subject to a vulnerability which can be used to create new files and directory structures on the host system that previously did not exist, potentially allowing attackers to change their resource allocations, promote their containers to privileged mode, or potentially add ssh authorized keys to allow the attacker access to a remote shell on the target machine.   In order to use this exploit, an attacker must have an existing \"server\" allocated and controlled by the Wings Daemon. This vulnerability has been resolved in version `v1.11.3` of the Wings Daemon, and has been back-ported to the 1.7 release series in `v1.7.3`. Anyone running `v1.11.x` should upgrade to `v1.11.3` and anyone running `v1.7.x` should upgrade to `v1.7.3`. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nNone at this time.","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":"Symbolic Link (Symlink) Following in github.com/pterodactyl/wings","id":"CVE-2023-25152","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2023"},"n_packages":5,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"containerd OCI image importer memory exhaustion","id":"CVE-2023-25153"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.7.3","1.11.3"],"introduced":["0","1.11.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/pterodactyl/wings","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/pterodactyl/wings","source":"GO-2023-1542"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.7.3"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/pterodactyl/wings","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-p8r3-83r8-jwj5"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.7.3"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/pterodactyl/wings","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/pterodactyl/wings","source":"GHSA-p8r3-83r8-jwj5"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.11.3"],"introduced":["1.11.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/pterodactyl/wings","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-p8r3-83r8-jwj5"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":["1.11.3"],"introduced":["1.11.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"github.com/pterodactyl/wings","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/pterodactyl/wings","source":"GHSA-p8r3-83r8-jwj5"}],"prev":{"headline":"DoS vulnerability for high cardinality metrics in opentelemetry-go-contrib","id":"CVE-2023-25151"},"products":["wings"],"published":"2023-02-08","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Improper isolation of server file access in github.com/pterodactyl/wings","id":"CVE-2024-27102","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-13"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Symbolic Link (Symlink) Following allowing the deletion of files and directories on the host system in wings","id":"CVE-2023-25168","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-08"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Wings vulnerable to escape to host from installation container","id":"CVE-2023-32080","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-10"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Arbitrary File Write/Read in Pterodactyl wings","id":"CVE-2024-34066","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-05-03"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Pterodactyl websocket endpoints have no visible rate limits or monitoring, allowing for DOS attacks","id":"CVE-2025-69199","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-01-19"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Endless reprocessing/reupload of activity log data due to SQLite max parameters limit not being considered","id":"CVE-2026-21696","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-01-19"}],"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":"2025-03-10","vendors":["pterodactyl"]},"summary":"Attackers with allocated servers can exploit symlink following to modify host files, escalate privileges, or gain remote shell access.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-25152/"}
