An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-1999-1189 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-1999-1189/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1189/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-1189","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1189/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-1189","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f9rc-g2vv-h5f9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Netscape Navigator","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service or execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in Netscape Navigator when processing long URL arguments.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"communicator","vendor":"netscape"},{"product":"navigator","vendor":"netscape"}],"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":"Buffer overflow in Netscape Navigator/Communicator 4.7 for Windows 95 and Windows 98 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, and possibly execute arbitrary commands, via a long argument after the ? character in a URL that references an .asp, .cgi, .html, or .pl file.","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":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1189","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1190"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1188"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2004-09-01","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Buffer overflow in the sun.awt.windows.WDefaultFontCharset Java class implementation in Netscape 4.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbi","id":"CVE-2002-2248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-14"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0596","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-09"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1357","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-09-12"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1187","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-01-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0440","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-10-13"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-2284","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-18"}],"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":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service or execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in Netscape Navigator when processing long URL arguments.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1189/"}
