An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2002-1908 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Internet Information Services. 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-2002-1908/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-1908/index.md)","id":"CVE-2002-1908","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-1908/index.md","name":"CVE-2002-1908","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g3q8-m2f7-hmq4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft IIS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause CPU exhaustion and denial of service in Microsoft IIS by sending HTTP requests with excessive forward slashes in the Host header.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"internet_information_services","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":"Microsoft IIS 5.0 and 5.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via an HTTP request with a Host header that contains a large number of \"/\" (forward slash) characters.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1908","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:internet_information_services","products":["microsoft:internet_information_services"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2002"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1909"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1907"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-06-28","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Server Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2017-7269","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2017-03-27"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-3972","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-12-23"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4301","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"The \"hit-highlighting\" functionality in webhits.dll in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) Web Server 5.0 only uses Windows NT ACL","id":"CVE-2007-2815","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-22"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Buffer overflow in ssinc.dll for Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a web pa","id":"CVE-2003-0224","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-05-30"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"IIS 1.0 allows users to execute arbitrary commands using .bat or .cmd files.","id":"CVE-1999-0233","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-01-18"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2730","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-09-15"}],"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause CPU exhaustion and denial of service in Microsoft IIS by sending HTTP requests with excessive forward slashes in the Host header.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-1908/"}
