An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-1999-0096 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Freebsd Freebsd. 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-1999-0096/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0096/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-0096","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0096/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-0096","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x3w7-5p4x-x8g9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Sendmail mail server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can exploit Sendmail's alias decoding to overwrite sensitive files on the mail server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"bsd_os","vendor":"bsdi"},{"product":"freebsd","vendor":"freebsd"},{"product":"internet_faststart","vendor":"sco"},{"product":"openserver","vendor":"sco"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Sendmail decode alias can be used to overwrite sensitive files.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0096","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"freebsd:freebsd","products":["freebsd:freebsd","sco:openserver"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0097"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0095"},"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-1999-0002","kev_date_added":null,"published":"1999-09-29"},{"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-01","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit Sendmail's alias decoding to overwrite sensitive files on the mail server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0096/"}
