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-2000-0621 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Outlook. 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-2000-0621/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0621/index.md)","id":"CVE-2000-0621","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0621/index.md","name":"CVE-2000-0621","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vvh2-vwv7-8grx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft Outlook","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can read local files on client systems via malformed HTML messages in Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"outlook","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"outlook_express","vendor":"microsoft"}],"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":"Microsoft Outlook 98 and 2000, and Outlook Express 4.0x and 5.0x, allow remote attackers to read files on the client's system via a malformed HTML message that stores files outside of the cache, aka the \"Cache Bypass\" vulnerability.","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":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0621","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:outlook","products":["microsoft:outlook"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2000"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0622"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0620"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2000-10-13","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office Outlook Security Feature Bypass","id":"CVE-2017-11774","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2017-10-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0538","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-09"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3870","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-09-11"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2728","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-09-15"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0266","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-07-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-1378","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-19"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4040","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-07-27"}],"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":"2024-08-08","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can read local files on client systems via malformed HTML messages in Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0621/"}
