CVE-2024-7107: Directory Traversal in National Keep's CyberMath
Files or Directories Accessible to External Parties vulnerability in National Keep Cyber Security Services CyberMath allows Collect Data from Common Resource Locations.
This issue affects CyberMath: before CYBM.240816253.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
CyberMath versions before CYBM.240816253 may expose files or directories that should not be accessible. The available record points to confidentiality loss rather than data tampering or service outage. Business urgency is moderate, especially where CyberMath runs on shared systems, handles sensitive data, or is reachable by low-privileged local users.
Executive priority
Handle as a moderate confidentiality risk. It does not currently show evidence of active exploitation, but affected systems may expose sensitive data to low-privileged local users. Prioritize verification and upgrade where CyberMath stores regulated, customer, or operationally sensitive information.
Technical view
CVE-2024-7107 is described as CWE-552 in National Keep Cyber Security Services CyberMath before CYBM.240816253. The CVSS 4.0 vector is local, low complexity, low privileges, no user interaction, with high vulnerable-system confidentiality impact and limited subsequent confidentiality impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is limited to organizations running CyberMath before CYBM.240816253. The CVSS vector indicates local access and low privileges are required, so highest concern is multi-user hosts, managed workstations, or servers where lower-privileged accounts coexist with sensitive CyberMath files.
Exploitation context
The source bundle does not cite active exploitation, and the CVE is not marked KEV. No public exploit details are provided in the supplied sources. Treat exploitation status as unconfirmed rather than active.
Researcher notes
The public record is sparse. The affected version data is limited, one listed government reference is tagged as a broken link, and no exploit narrative is supplied. The CVSS vector is the clearest technical evidence: local attack surface, low privileges, no user interaction, confidentiality-focused impact.
Mitigation direction
Inventory CyberMath installations and confirm installed build numbers.
Upgrade CyberMath to CYBM.240816253 or later if vendor guidance confirms availability.
Review National Keep or government advisory guidance before applying compensating controls.
Restrict local user access on systems running vulnerable CyberMath versions.
Monitor access to sensitive CyberMath directories and files.
Validation and detection
Confirm whether CyberMath is installed in the environment.
Compare installed versions against the affected range before CYBM.240816253.
Review file and directory permissions for unintended low-privileged access.
Check logs for unusual access to CyberMath data locations.
Document systems where version or exposure cannot be confirmed.

CWE-552: Exact CWE lookup
Use the exact CWE identifier as the starting point before reviewing related ATT&CK behavior. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
The CVE wording references file access or upload behavior, so file telemetry and web shell review may help. This is a Glexia inferred lookup path, not an official MITRE, ATT&CK, or CVE Program mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.
