It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-1999-0123 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Slackware Slackware 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-1999-0123/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0123/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-0123","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0123/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-0123","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8r69-8g3h-gvcw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux mailx utility","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit a race condition in the Linux mailx command to read other users' files.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"slackware_linux","vendor":"slackware"}],"cvss":{"score":3.7,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Race condition in Linux mailx command allows local users to read user 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":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0123","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"slackware:slackware_linux","products":["slackware:slackware_linux"],"type":"race_condition","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0124"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0122"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2000-02-04","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Misconfiguration in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-7171","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-21"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-7172","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0335","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0242","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-02-04"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0298","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-02-04"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Misconfiguration in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1422","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-09-12"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1434","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-09-12"}],"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":"Local attackers can exploit a race condition in the Linux mailx command to read other users' files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0123/"}
