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-2024-4701 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- com.netflix.genie:genie-web (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 4.3.18\n- com.netflix.genie:genie-web (Maven): affected all versions; fixed in 4.3.18\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-2024-4701/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-4701/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-4701","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-4701/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-4701","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wpcv-5jgp-69f3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Netflix Genie","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can exploit path traversal in file uploads to achieve remote code execution in Netflix Genie.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"netflix","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.9,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"}],"description":"A path traversal issue potentially leading to remote code execution in Genie for all versions prior to 4.3.18","ecosystems":["Maven"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2024-05-13","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":2,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2024-05-13T11:58:19Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/JoeBeeton/CVE-2024-4701-POC","stars":2,"title":"POC for CVE-2024-4701"},{"date":"2025-09-12T07:06:44Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/JinhyukKo/CVE-2024-4701-POC","stars":1,"title":null}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Path Traversal vulnerability via File Uploads in Genie","id":"CVE-2024-4701","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Maven","product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2024"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Mega Elements \u003c= 1.2.1 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via Button Widget","id":"CVE-2024-4702"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["4.3.18"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"com.netflix.genie:genie-web","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-wpcv-5jgp-69f3"},{"ecosystem":"Maven","fixed":["4.3.18"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"com.netflix.genie:genie-web","purl":"pkg:maven/com.netflix.genie/genie-web","source":"GHSA-wpcv-5jgp-69f3"}],"prev":{"headline":"WP Table Builder – WordPress Table Plugin \u003c= 1.4.14 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2024-4700"},"products":["Genie"],"published":"2024-05-10","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-01","vendors":["Netflix"]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit path traversal in file uploads to achieve remote code execution in Netflix Genie.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-4701/"}
