It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-1999-0787 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-1999-0787/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0787/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-0787","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0787/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-0787","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-93v8-gx5g-v586"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SSH authentication agent","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can exploit symlink following in the SSH agent to read sensitive files or escalate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ssh","vendor":"ssh"}],"cvss":{"score":2.1,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"The SSH authentication agent follows symlinks via a UNIX domain socket.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"1999-09-17","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"1999-09-17","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"19510","stars":null,"title":"SSH Communications Security SSH 1.2.27 - Authentication Socket File Creation"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0787","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0788"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0786"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2000-10-13","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-10-13"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0013","kev_date_added":null,"published":"1999-09-29"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1473","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-04-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"SSH before 2.0, when using RC4 and password authentication, allows remote attackers to replay messages until a new server key (VK) is generated.","id":"CVE-2001-1475","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-04-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"SSH before 2.0, with RC4 encryption and the \"disallow NULL passwords\" option enabled, makes it easier for remote attackers to guess portions","id":"CVE-2001-1476","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-04-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0471","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-24"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"SSH 1.2.25 on HP-UX allows access to new user accounts.","id":"CVE-1999-0310","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)"},{"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":"Local attackers can exploit symlink following in the SSH agent to read sensitive files or escalate privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0787/"}
