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-2000-0844 exists.\n\nAffected product: Conectiva 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-2000-0844/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0844/index.md)","id":"CVE-2000-0844","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-0844/index.md","name":"CVE-2000-0844","record":{"aliases":["CVE-2003-0090","GHSA-r7p8-7w63-3m9v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Unix locale subsystem","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary commands via format string vulnerabilities in Unix locale functions like gettext and catopen.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"openlinux","vendor":"caldera"},{"product":"openlinux_ebuilder","vendor":"caldera"},{"product":"openlinux_eserver","vendor":"caldera"},{"product":"linux","vendor":"conectiva"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"aix","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"immunix","vendor":"immunix"},{"product":"mandrake_linux","vendor":"mandrakesoft"},{"product":"linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"irix","vendor":"sgi"},{"product":"slackware_linux","vendor":"slackware"},{"product":"solaris","vendor":"sun"},{"product":"sunos","vendor":"sun"},{"product":"suse_linux","vendor":"suse"},{"product":"secure_linux","vendor":"trustix"},{"product":"turbolinux","vendor":"turbolinux"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Some functions that implement the locale subsystem on Unix do not  properly cleanse user-injected format strings, which allows local attackers to execute arbitrary commands via functions such as gettext and catopen.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":11,"first_seen":"2000-09-04","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2000-09-04","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"20187","stars":null,"title":"Immunix OS 6.2 -
