An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2023-40160 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2023-40160 is a low-severity path traversal vulnerability in A.K.I Software  pmmls.exe, published on 18 Mar 2024. 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-2023-40160 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: A.K.I Software  pmmls.exe. 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-2023-40160/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-40160/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-40160","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-40160/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-40160","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-27v4-w7r4-68vg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mail server software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A remote attacker can exploit a directory traversal flaw in the Mailing List Search CGI to read arbitrary files on the server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":3.7,"severity":"low","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/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":"Directory traversal vulnerability exists in Mailing List Search CGI (pmmls.exe) included in A.K.I Software's PMailServer/PMailServer2 products.
