It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-1999-0697 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Sco Openserver. 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-1999-0697/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0697/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-0697","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0697/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-0697","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-fwr5-hvj8-gff6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SCO Unix OS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local users can gain root privileges via a Tools option in SCO Doctor, requiring local access and user interaction.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"openserver","vendor":"sco"}],"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":"SCO Doctor allows local users to gain root privileges through a Tools option.","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-1999-0697","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"sco:openserver","products":["sco:openserver"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0698"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0696"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2000-10-13","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0306","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-07"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Buffer overflow in termsh on SCO OpenServer 5.0.7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long -o command line argument.","id":"CVE-2006-0072","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-01-04"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0390","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-04-14"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1450","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-09-12"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0579","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-07-27"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0158","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-02-23"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1131","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-02-08"}],"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 users can gain root privileges via a Tools option in SCO Doctor, requiring local access and user interaction.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0697/"}
