{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2010-2252","details":"GNU Wget 1.12 and earlier uses a server-provided filename instead of the original URL to determine the destination filename of a download, which allows remote servers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a 3xx redirect to a URL with a .wgetrc filename followed by a 3xx redirect to a URL with a crafted filename, and possibly execute arbitrary code as a consequence of writing to a dotfile in a home directory.","modified":"2026-09-18T06:47:24.930284009Z","published":"2010-07-06T17:17:13.313Z","upstream":["CVE-2010-2252"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2010-2252"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"wget","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/wget?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.12-2.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"low"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2010-2252.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wget","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/wget?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.12-2.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"low"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2010-2252.json"}},{"package":{"name":"wget","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/wget?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.12-2.1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"low"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2010-2252.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
