It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-1724 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/snapcore/snapd (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n- github.com/snapcore/snapd (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.62\n- github.com/snapcore/snapd (Go): affected all versions; fixed in 2.62\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-2024-1724/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-1724/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-1724","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-1724/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-1724","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2024-1724","GHSA-4mh8-9689-38vr","GO-2024-3007","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-1724"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"snapd package manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can escape snap confinement by writing scripts to $HOME/bin, enabling arbitrary code execution outside the sandbox.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"canonical","cpe":[{"product":"snapd","vendor":"canonical"}],"cvss":{"score":6.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"In snapd versions prior to 2.62, when using AppArmor for enforcement of \nsandbox permissions, snapd failed to restrict writes to the $HOME/bin\npath.
