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-2023-45159 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: 1E Client. 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-2023-45159/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-45159/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-45159","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-45159/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-45159","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p6vf-3g57-hjv6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"1E Client installer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A non-privileged user can delete protected files by exploiting symbolic links in the 1E Client installer during service startup.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"1E","cpe":[{"product":"client","vendor":"1e"}],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"1E Client installer can perform arbitrary file deletion on protected files.  \n\nA non-privileged user could provide a symbolic link or Windows junction to point to a protected directory in the installer that the 1E Client would then clear on service startup. \n\nA hotfix is available from the 1E support portal that forces the 1E Client to check for a symbolic link or junction and if it finds one refuses to use that path and instead creates a path involving a random GUID.\n\nfor v8.1 use hotfix Q23097\nfor v8.4 use hotfix Q23105\nfor v9.0 use hotfix Q23115\n\nfor SaaS customers, use 1EClient v23.7 plus hotfix Q23121","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":"1E Client installer can perform arbitrary file deletion on protected files","id":"CVE-2023-45159","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Elevated Temp Directory Execution in 1E Client","id":"CVE-2023-45160"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in web2py","id":"CVE-2023-45158"},"products":["1E Client"],"published":"2023-10-05","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Elevated Temp Directory Execution in 1E Client","id":"CVE-2023-45160","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-05"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-16268","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-29"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-27644","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-29"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-27645","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-29"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-27643","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-29"}],"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":"2025-06-18","vendors":["1E"]},"summary":"A non-privileged user can delete protected files by exploiting symbolic links in the 1E Client installer during service startup.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-45159/"}
