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-2024-6908 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: YugabyteDB Anywhere. 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-2024-6908/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6908/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-6908","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6908/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-6908","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vwc8-7rg6-jffc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"YugabyteDB Anywhere","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated admin users can escalate privileges to SuperAdmin via a crafted PUT request, gaining unauthorized access to sensitive system functions and data.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Yugabyte","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:P/VC:L/VI:H/VA:N/SC:H/SI:H/SA:H","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"Improper privilege management in Yugabyte Platform allows authenticated admin users to escalate privileges to SuperAdmin via a crafted PUT HTTP request, potentially leading to unauthorized access to sensitive system functions and data.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Admin Can Escalate Privileges to SuperAdmin Using Manual PUT Request","id":"CVE-2024-6908","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"This CVE ID has been rejected or withdrawn by its CVE Numbering Authority.","id":"CVE-2024-6909"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SourceCodester Record Management System sort.php cross site scripting","id":"CVE-2024-6907"},"products":["YugabyteDB Anywhere"],"published":"2024-07-19","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-01","vendors":["YugabyteDB"]},"summary":"Authenticated admin users can escalate privileges to SuperAdmin via a crafted PUT request, gaining unauthorized access to sensitive system functions and data.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-6908/"}
