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-1999-0462 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Suse Suse 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-1999-0462/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0462/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-0462","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0462/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-0462","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5q5q-p45w-x7rp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux Perl","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can gain root access by exploiting suidperl's failure to respect nosuid mount options on removable media.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"suse_linux","vendor":"suse"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"suidperl in Linux Perl does not check the nosuid mount option on file systems, allowing local users to gain root access by placing a setuid script in a mountable file system, e.g. a CD-ROM or floppy disk.","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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0462","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"suse:suse_linux","products":["suse:suse_linux"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0463"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Versions of rpcbind including Linux, IRIX, and Wietse Venema's rpcbind allow a remote attacker to insert and delete entries by spoofing a source address.","id":"CVE-1999-0461"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2000-02-04","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-0460","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-01-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"The send_pinentry_environment function in asshelp.c in gpg2 on SUSE Linux 9.3 does not properly handle certain options, which can prevent pi","id":"CVE-2005-2023","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-06-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"The Live CD in SUSE LINUX 9.1 Personal edition is configured without a password for root, which allows remote attackers to gain privileges via SSH.","id":"CVE-2004-2004","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-05-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1040","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-01-22"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1044","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-01-22"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0800","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-09-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0614","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-07-19"}],"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 gain root access by exploiting suidperl's failure to respect nosuid mount options on removable media.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0462/"}
