Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-53944 exists.\n\nAffected product: EasyPHP Webserver. 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-2023-53944/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53944/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-53944","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-53944/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-53944","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8c7w-wmmg-f7mj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"EasyPHP Webserver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can read arbitrary system files outside the document root by exploiting directory traversal sequences in EasyPHP Webserver.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[{"product":"webserver","vendor":"easyphp"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"EasyPHP Webserver 14.1 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows remote users with low privileges to access files outside the document root by bypassing SecurityManager restrictions.
