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-1999-1371 exists.\n\nAffected product: Sun Sunos. 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-1999-1371/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1371/index.md)","id":"CVE-1999-1371","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1371/index.md","name":"CVE-1999-1371","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g7p2-5qfp-frgm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Solaris OS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit a buffer overflow in the write utility to gain elevated privileges on Solaris systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"sunos","vendor":"sun"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Buffer overflow in /usr/bin/write in Solaris 2.6 and 7 allows local users to gain privileges via a long string in the terminal name argument.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2001-01-25","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2001-01-25","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"256","stars":null,"title":"Solaris 2.6/2.7 - '/usr/bin/write' Local Overflow"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1371","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"sun:sunos","products":["sun:sunos"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"1999"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1372"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"The setup wizard (ie5setup.exe) for Internet Explorer 5.0 disables (1) the screen saver, which could leave the system open to users with phy","id":"CVE-1999-1370"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2001-09-12","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-4435","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-01-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4619","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-10-20"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2144","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-05-12"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Misconfiguration in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1369","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-03-18"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1583","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-09-23"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0269","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-09"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1467","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-09-12"}],"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 a buffer overflow in the write utility to gain elevated privileges on Solaris systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-1999-1371/"}
