It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2000-1207 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2000-1207/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-1207/index.md)","id":"CVE-2000-1207","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-1207/index.md","name":"CVE-2000-1207","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vcxc-2pg3-26ww"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Red Hat Linux","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges to root by exploiting format string vulnerabilities in glibc via environment variables when userhelper executes non-setuid programs.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"linux","vendor":"redhat"}],"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":"userhelper in the usermode package on Red Hat Linux executes non-setuid programs as root, which does not activate the security measures in glibc and allows the programs to be exploited via format string vulnerabilities in glibc via the LANG or LC_ALL environment variables (CVE-2000-0844).","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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1207","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"redhat:linux","products":["redhat:linux"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2000"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1208"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1206"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2002-07-31","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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-08","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges to root by exploiting format string vulnerabilities in glibc via environment variables when userhelper executes non-setuid programs.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2000-1207/"}
