An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-1999-0997 exists.\n\nAffected product: Redhat 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-1999-0997/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0997/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-0997","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0997/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-0997","record":{"aliases":["DSA-377","GHSA-2hff-p384-25wq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"wu-ftp server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary commands on wu-ftp servers with conversion enabled by sending malformed filenames, requiring immediate patching.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"anonftp","vendor":"millenux_gmbh"},{"product":"linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"wu-ftpd","vendor":"university_of_washington"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"wu-ftp with FTP conversion enabled allows an attacker to execute commands via a malformed file name that is interpreted as an argument to the program that does the conversion, e.g. tar or uncompress.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"1999-12-20","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"1999-12-20","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"20563","stars":null,"title":"WU-FTPD 2.4.2/2.5 .0/2.6.0/2.6.1/2.6.2 - FTP Conversion"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0997","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"redhat:linux","products":["redhat:linux"],"type":"command_injection","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0998"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0996"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2000-04-25","related":[],"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":"Attackers can execute arbitrary commands on wu-ftp servers with conversion enabled by sending malformed filenames, requiring immediate patching.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-0997/"}
