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-1999-1188 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Oracle Mysql. 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-1999-1188/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1188/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-1188","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1188/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-1188","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c8f9-m33j-ppw6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MySQL database server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can read world-readable log files to obtain user passwords, compromising database credentials.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mysql","vendor":"oracle"}],"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":"mysqld in MySQL 3.21 creates log files with world-readable permissions, which allows local users to obtain passwords for users who are added to the user database.","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":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1188","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"oracle:mysql","products":["oracle:mysql"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1189"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Pine before version 3.94 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on a lockfile that is created when a user receives new mail.","id":"CVE-1999-1187"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2002-03-09","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-0639","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-04-21"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0150","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-03-21"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2572","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-08-16"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Auth bypass in MySQL Server","id":"CVE-2020-14878","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-21"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-0969","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-09-01"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-3440","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-07-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"MySQL Connector/Python connector takeover vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-21272","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-15"}],"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 read world-readable log files to obtain user passwords, compromising database credentials.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1188/"}
