An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2003-0434 exists.\n\nAffected product: Adobe Acrobat. 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-2003-0434/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0434/index.md)","id":"CVE-2003-0434","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0434/index.md","name":"CVE-2003-0434","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2003-0434","GHSA-857w-p662-mpmp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PDF viewer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in embedded hyperlinks within PDF files viewed by affected applications.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"acrobat","vendor":"adobe"},{"product":"mandrake_linux","vendor":"mandrakesoft"},{"product":"mandrake_linux_corporate_server","vendor":"mandrakesoft"},{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"linux_advanced_workstation","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"xpdf","vendor":"xpdf"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Various PDF viewers including (1) Adobe Acrobat 5.06 and (2) Xpdf 1.01 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in an embedded hyperlink.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2003-06-13","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2003-06-13","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"22771","stars":null,"title":"Adobe Acrobat Reader (UNIX) 5.0 6 / Xpdf 0.9x Hyperlinks - Arbitrary Command Execution"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0434","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"adobe:acrobat","products":["adobe:acrobat","mandrakesoft:mandrake_linux","mandrakesoft:mandrake_linux_corporate_server","redhat:enterprise_linux","redhat:linux","redhat:linux_advanced_workstation"],"type":"command_injection","year":"2003"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0435"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0433"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2003-06-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Adobe Acrobat and Reader Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2021-28550","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-09-02"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Acrobat and Reader Heap-based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2021-21017","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Reader and Acrobat Sandbox Bypass","id":"CVE-2014-0546","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2014-08-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Reader and Acrobat Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2014-0496","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2014-01-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Reader and Acrobat Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2013-3346","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2013-08-30"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Reader and Acrobat Arbitrary Integer Overflow","id":"CVE-2013-2729","kev_date_added":"2022-03-28","published":"2013-05-16"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Adobe Reader and Acrobat Universal 3D Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2011-2462","kev_date_added":"2022-06-08","published":"2011-12-07"}],"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 execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in embedded hyperlinks within PDF files viewed by affected applications.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0434/"}
