Published May 30, 2023CWE-276EPSS 0.38%

Overview

CVE-2023-32698 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on May 30, 2023 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.1, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

nFPM is an alternative to fpm. The file permissions on the checked-in files were not maintained. Hence, when nfpm packaged

the files (without extra config for enforcing it’s own permissions) files could go out with bad permissions (chmod 666 or 777). Anyone using nfpm for creating packages without checking/setting file permissions before packaging could result in bad permissions for files/folders.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
