An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-37878 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Wing FTP Server. 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-2023-37878/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37878/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-37878","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37878/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-37878","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wjwx-g228-98hp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Wing FTP Server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Insecure default permissions in Wing FTP Server allow attackers to escalate privileges within the application.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"misconfiguration"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"NCSC.ch","cpe":[{"product":"wing_ftp_server","vendor":"wftpserver"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"}],"description":"Insecure default permissions in Wing FTP Server (Admin Web Client) allows for privilege escalation.This issue affects Wing FTP Server: \u003c= 7.2.0.","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":"Insecure Default Permissions in Wing FTP Server \u003c= 7.2.0","id":"CVE-2023-37878","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"misconfiguration","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Exposed Session Variable in Wing FTP Server \u003c= 7.2.0","id":"CVE-2023-37879"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability in Wing FTP Server \u003c= 7.2.0","id":"CVE-2023-37875"},"products":["Wing FTP Server"],"published":"2023-09-12","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Wing FTP Server Improper Neutralization of Null Byte or NUL Character","id":"CVE-2025-47812","kev_date_added":"2025-07-14","published":"2025-07-10"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Wing FTP Server Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2025-47813","kev_date_added":"2026-03-16","published":"2025-07-10"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Wing FTP Server \u003c 8.1.3 Authenticated Remote Code Execution via Session Serialization","id":"CVE-2026-44403","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-12"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Wing FTP Server 6.3.8 - Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-37032","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-01-30"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Wing FTP Server 6.0.7 - Unquoted Service Path","id":"CVE-2019-25267","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-9470","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-07"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8634","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-06"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-26","vendors":["Wing FTP Server"]},"summary":"Insecure default permissions in Wing FTP Server allow attackers to escalate privileges within the application.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-37878/"}
