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-2000-0118 exists.\n\nAffected product: Redhat Linux. 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-2000-0118/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0118/index.md)","id":"CVE-2000-0118","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0118/index.md","name":"CVE-2000-0118","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pcr7-6q32-4xxw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux su utility","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can bypass logging of failed su attempts by killing the process, facilitating undetected brute-force password guessing.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"solaris","vendor":"sun"},{"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":"The Red Hat Linux su program does not log failed password guesses if the su process is killed before it times out, which allows local attackers to conduct brute force password guessing.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"1999-06-09","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"1999-06-09","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"19255","stars":null,"title":"RedHat Linux 5.2 i386/6.0 - No Logging"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0118","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"redhat:linux","products":["redhat:linux","sun:solaris","sun:sunos"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2000"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0119"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0117"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2000-02-08","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1220","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-04-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-06-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1542","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-09"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-1299","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-09-12"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0322","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-10-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-04-26"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0093","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-02-08"}],"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":"Local attackers can bypass logging of failed su attempts by killing the process, facilitating undetected brute-force password guessing.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0118/"}
