An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2000-0073 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2000-0073 is a medium-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Microsoft Windows 2000, published on 18 Apr 2000. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2000-0073 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 2000. 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-2000-0073/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0073/index.md)","id":"CVE-2000-0073","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0073/index.md","name":"CVE-2000-0073","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hp77-39hv-xf39"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft RTF reader","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service by tricking users into opening a malformed Rich Text Format file.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"windows_2000","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_98","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_nt","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Buffer overflow in Microsoft Rich Text Format (RTF) reader allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed control word.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"1999-11-17","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"1999-11-17","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"19633","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Windows 95/98/Enterprise Server 4/NT Server 4/Terminal Server 4/Workstation 4 - Riched Buffer Overflow"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0073","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_2000","products":["microsoft:windows_2000","microsoft:windows_98","microsoft:windows_nt"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2000"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0074"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0072"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2000-04-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2008-4250","kev_date_added":"2026-05-20","published":"2008-10-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Kernel Exception Handler","id":"CVE-2010-0232","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2010-01-21"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2009-1123","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2009-06-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2002-0367","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2003-04-02"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0269","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-04-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0231","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-02-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3677","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-12-09"}],"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":"2024-08-08","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service by tricking users into opening a malformed Rich Text Format file.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0073/"}
