An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-8248 exists.\n\nAffected product: Mintplexlabs Anythingllm. 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-2024-8248/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8248/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-8248","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8248/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-8248","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mqp7-6vh9-99r6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"AnythingLLM application","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Path traversal in AnythingLLM allows arbitrary file read and write, enabling privilege escalation from manager to admin.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"@huntr_ai","cpe":[{"product":"anythingllm","vendor":"mintplexlabs"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-29","name":"Path Traversal: '\\..\\filename'"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the normalizePath function in mintplex-labs/anything-llm version git 296f041 allows for path traversal, leading to arbitrary file read and write in the storage directory.
