An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2001-1055 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 98. 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-2001-1055/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1055/index.md)","id":"CVE-2001-1055","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1055/index.md","name":"CVE-2001-1055","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3xpc-4hfv-fv7x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows network stack","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via CPU consumption by flooding the Windows network stack with malformed ARP packets.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"windows_98","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_98se","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"The Microsoft Windows network stack allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a flood of malformed ARP request packets with random source IP and MAC addresses, as demonstrated by ARPNuke.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2001-07-30","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2001-07-30","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"21040","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Windows 98 - ARP Denial of Service"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1055","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_98","products":["microsoft:windows_98","microsoft:windows_98se"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2001"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1056"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1054"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2004-09-01","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-2376","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-06-13"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Microsoft Windows 98 and Windows NT 4.0 do not properly verify the Basic Constraints of digital certificates, allowing remote attackers to e","id":"CVE-2002-1183","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-09-01"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0876","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-09"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0877","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-09"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0721","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-11-22"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0357","kev_date_added":null,"published":"1999-09-29"}],"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":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via CPU consumption by flooding the Windows network stack with malformed ARP packets.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1055/"}
