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-2002-2206 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Symantec Norton Antivirus. 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-2002-2206/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-2206/index.md)","id":"CVE-2002-2206","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-2206/index.md","name":"CVE-2002-2206","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f5f2-44mf-667j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Norton AntiVirus","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can cause a denial of service in Norton AntiVirus POP3 proxy by submitting a long username with multiple localhost entries.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"norton_antivirus","vendor":"symantec"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"The POP3 proxy service (POPROXY.EXE) in Norton AntiVirus 2001 allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and crash) via a long username with multiple /localhost entries.","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-2002-2206","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"symantec:norton_antivirus","products":["symantec:norton_antivirus"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2002"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-2207"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-2205"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-11-16","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2017","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-08-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0487","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-06-03"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-3456","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-11"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1774","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-06-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1775","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-06-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1776","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-06-21"}],"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":"2024-09-17","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can cause a denial of service in Norton AntiVirus POP3 proxy by submitting a long username with multiple localhost entries.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2002-2206/"}
