{"cve":"CVE-2019-0191","nvd":{"published":"2019-03-21T16:01:01.827","modified":"2026-06-17T02:07:55.117","status":"Modified","description":"Apache Karaf kar deployer reads .kar archives and extracts the paths from the \"repository/\" and \"resources/\" entries in the zip file. It then writes out the content of these paths to the Karaf repo and resources directories. However, it doesn't do any validation on the paths in the zip file. This means that a malicious user could craft a .kar file with \"..\" directory names and break out of the directories to write arbitrary content to the filesystem. This is the \"Zip-slip\" vulnerability - https://snyk.io/research/zip-slip-vulnerability. This vulnerability is low if the Karaf process user has limited permission on the filesystem. Any Apache Karaf releases prior 4.2.3 is impacted.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.0","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","score":6.5},"cwes":["CWE-22"],"references":["http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/107462","https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/6856aa7ed7dd805eaf65d0e5e95027dda3b2307aacd1ab4a838c5cd1%40%3Cuser.karaf.apache.org%3E","https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/cef9a2d4b547625e5214684283ac5c59c9d9740e092e777dc3f85070%40%3Ccommits.karaf.apache.org%3E","http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/107462","https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/6856aa7ed7dd805eaf65d0e5e95027dda3b2307aacd1ab4a838c5cd1%40%3Cuser.karaf.apache.org%3E"],"products":["apache:karaf"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T20:55:22.313337056+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2019-0191","score":0.04858,"percentile":0.92037,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[{"id":"GHSA-869j-5855-hjpm","url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/GHSA-869j-5855-hjpm","summary":"Moderate severity vulnerability that affects org.apache.karaf:apache-karaf and org.apache.karaf:karaf","modified":"2023-11-08T04:00:30.677048Z","packages":[{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.karaf:karaf","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.karaf/karaf","ranges":["<4.2.3"],"fixed":["4.2.3"]},{"ecosystem":"Maven","name":"org.apache.karaf:apache-karaf","purl":"pkg:maven/org.apache.karaf/apache-karaf","ranges":["<4.2.3"],"fixed":["4.2.3"]}]}],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
