An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-1999-0002 exists.\n\nAffected product: Redhat Linux. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0002/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0002/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-0002","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0002/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-0002","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-222m-mgc9-9mqv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux NFS mountd","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can exploit a buffer overflow in NFS mountd to gain root access on Linux systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"bsd_os","vendor":"bsdi"},{"product":"openlinux","vendor":"caldera"},{"product":"linux","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Buffer overflow in NFS mountd gives root access to remote attackers, mostly in Linux systems.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"1998-08-28","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"1998-08-28","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"19096","stars":null,"title":"RedHat Linux 5.1 / Caldera OpenLinux Standard 1.2 - Mountd"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0002","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"redhat:linux","products":["redhat:linux"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0003"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0001"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"1999-09-29","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0323","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-06-02"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"NFS cache poisoning.","id":"CVE-1999-0165","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-02-04"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0798","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-02-04"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0879","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-01-04"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0009","kev_date_added":null,"published":"1999-09-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0042","kev_date_added":null,"published":"1999-09-29"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-01","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can exploit a buffer overflow in NFS mountd to gain root access on Linux systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0002/"}
