CVE-2024-3094-detect

XZ Utils Vulnerability Check and Downgrade Script

This script is designed to check the version of XZ Utils installed on your Linux system and downgrade it to a safe version if necessary. It also detects the Linux distribution and the package manager used.

Features

  • Checks the installed version of XZ Utils and identifies if it's vulnerable.
  • Detects the Linux distribution (Fedora, Debian, openSUSE, Kali Linux).
  • Downgrades XZ Utils to a safe version if needed.

Prerequisites

  • Bash shell (most Linux distributions come with Bash pre-installed).
  • Superuser (root) privileges to perform the downgrade operation.

Usage

  1. Download the script (detect-cve-2024-3094.sh) to your Linux system.
  2. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory containing the script.
  3. Make the script executable with the command:
    root@kitploit:~
    chmod +x detect-cve-2024-3094.sh
  • Run the script as root (or with sudo) using the command:
    root@kitploit:~
    sudo ./detect-cve-2024-3094.sh
