An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-50306 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apache Traffic Server. 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-2024-50306/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50306/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-50306","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50306/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-50306","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2024-50306","GHSA-6j2p-q7p9-hmxw","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-50306"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Traffic Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker could exploit an unchecked return value to cause Apache Traffic Server to retain root privileges, leading to privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"traffic_server","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-252","name":"Unchecked Return Value"}],"description":"Unchecked return value can allow Apache Traffic Server to retain privileges on startup.\n\nThis issue affects Apache Traffic Server: from 9.2.0 through 9.2.5, from 10.0.0 through 10.0.1.\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version 9.2.6 or 10.0.2, which fixes the issue.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Apache Traffic Server: Server process can fail to drop privilege","id":"CVE-2024-50306","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apache:traffic_server","products":["apache:traffic_server"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in Chatwork Desktop Application (Windows)","id":"CVE-2024-50307"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Apache Traffic Server: Valid Host field value can cause crashes","id":"CVE-2024-50305"},"products":["Apache Traffic Server"],"published":"2024-11-14","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3525","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-08-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"heap-buffer-overflow with stats-over-http plugin","id":"CVE-2021-43082","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Dynamic stack buffer overflow in cachekey plugin","id":"CVE-2021-35474","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in Apache Traffic Server","id":"CVE-2019-17559","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-23"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in Apache Traffic Server","id":"CVE-2019-17565","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-23"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in Apache Traffic Server","id":"CVE-2020-1944","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-03-23"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3624","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-10-30"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-11-03","vendors":["Apache Software Foundation"]},"summary":"An attacker could exploit an unchecked return value to cause Apache Traffic Server to retain root privileges, leading to privilege escalation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-50306/"}
