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-1999-1076 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apple Macos. 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-1999-1076/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1076/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-1076","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1076/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-1076","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-54c2-phxc-2hgx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MacOS 9","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can bypass MacOS 9 idle session password protection by canceling a logout dialog, regaining access to the locked session.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"macos","vendor":"apple"}],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Idle locking function in MacOS 9 allows local users to bypass the password protection of idled sessions by selecting the \"Log Out\" option and selecting a \"Cancel\" option in the dialog box for an application that attempts to verify that the user wants to log out, which returns the attacker into the locked session.","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":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1076","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apple:macos","products":["apple:macos"],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1077"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1075"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2001-09-12","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apple macOS Improper Authentication","id":"CVE-2026-65400","kev_date_added":"2026-08-18","published":"2026-08-06"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in macOS","id":"CVE-2024-44146","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in macOS","id":"CVE-2024-44148","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in macOS","id":"CVE-2023-38586","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-26"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Security feature bypass in macOS","id":"CVE-2023-40455","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-26"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0590","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-02-04"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in macOS","id":"CVE-2026-84520","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-14"}],"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 bypass MacOS 9 idle session password protection by canceling a logout dialog, regaining access to the locked session.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1076/"}
