An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2024-28995 in the wild since at least 17 Jul 2024.\n\nAffected product: Solarwinds Serv-U. 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-2024-28995/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-28995/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-28995","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-28995/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-28995","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gr87-q8xh-gq3c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SolarWinds Serv-U","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can exploit a directory traversal flaw in SolarWinds Serv-U to read sensitive files on the host machine.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"SolarWinds","cpe":[{"product":"serv-u","vendor":"solarwinds"}],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"SolarWinds Serv-U was susceptible to a directory transversal vulnerability that would allow access to read sensitive files on the host machine.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2024-06-14","github_poc":9,"max_poc_stars":34,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2024-07-01T11:49:51Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Stuub/CVE-2024-28995","stars":34,"title":"CVE-2024-28955 Exploitation PoC "},{"date":"2024-06-14T23:05:40Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/bigb0x/CVE-2024-28995","stars":14,"title":"CVE-2024-28995 POC Vulnerability Scanner"},{"date":"2024-08-24T17:05:48Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/gotr00t0day/CVE-2024-28995","stars":3,"title":"SolarWinds Serv-U was susceptible to a directory transversal vulnerability that would allow access to read sensitive files on the host machine.
