It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-57966 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: KDE ark. 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-2024-57966/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-57966/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-57966","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-57966/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-57966","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2024-57966","DLA-4046-1","DSA-6029-1","GHSA-v9cx-qp5g-qchc","MGASA-2025-0061","OESA-2025-1130","OESA-2025-1131","OESA-2025-1132","OESA-2025-1133","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-57966","openSUSE-SU-2025:0090-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"KDE Ark archive manager","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can extract archives to arbitrary absolute paths, potentially overwriting critical files on the victim's system.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-36","name":"Absolute Path Traversal"}],"description":"libarchiveplugin.cpp in KDE ark before 24.12.0 can extract to an absolute path from an archive.","ecosystems":["SUSE:Package Hub 15 SP6","openSUSE:Leap 15.6"],"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":"Path traversal in ark","id":"CVE-2024-57966","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2024"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Privileged Access Manager","id":"CVE-2024-57967"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"SUSE:Package Hub 15 SP6","fixed":["23.08.5-bp156.2.3.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ark","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/ark\u0026distro=SUSE%20Package%20Hub%2015%20SP6","source":"openSUSE-SU-2025:0090-1"},{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Leap 15.6","fixed":["23.08.5-bp156.2.3.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"ark","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/ark\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Leap%2015.6","source":"openSUSE-SU-2025:0090-1"}],"prev":{"headline":"Other in axios","id":"CVE-2024-57965"},"products":["ark"],"published":"2025-02-03","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"openSUSE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-09","vendors":["KDE"]},"summary":"Attackers can extract archives to arbitrary absolute paths, potentially overwriting critical files on the victim's system.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-57966/"}
