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-2001-1036 exists.\n\nAffected product: Slackware Slackware 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-2001-1036/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1036/index.md)","id":"CVE-2001-1036","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1036/index.md","name":"CVE-2001-1036","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4846-269g-37mp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GNU locate utility","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can gain privileges via a crafted locate database causing arbitrary memory writes in GNU locate.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"findutils","vendor":"gnu"},{"product":"slackware_linux","vendor":"slackware"}],"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":"GNU locate in findutils 4.1 on Slackware 7.1 and 8.0 allows local users to gain privileges via an old formatted filename database (locatedb) that contains an entry with an out-of-range offset, which causes locate to write to arbitrary process memory.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2001-08-01","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2001-08-01","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"21043","stars":null,"title":"GNU findutils 4.0/4.1 - Locate Arbitrary Command Execution"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1036","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"slackware:slackware_linux","products":["slackware:slackware_linux"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2001"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1037"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1035"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2003-04-02","related":[{"cvss_score":6,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2452","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-06-04"}],"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 gain privileges via a crafted locate database causing arbitrary memory writes in GNU locate.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1036/"}
