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-2003-0620 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2003-0620/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0620/index.md)","id":"CVE-2003-0620","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0620/index.md","name":"CVE-2003-0620","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2003-0620","GHSA-57q8-53w4-9h6q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux man-db utility","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit buffer overflows in setuid man-db to gain elevated privileges via crafted environment variables or arguments.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"man","vendor":"andries_brouwer"}],"cvss":{"score":4.6,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Multiple buffer overflows in man-db 2.4.1 and earlier, when installed setuid, allow local users to gain privileges via (1) MANDATORY_MANPATH, MANPATH_MAP, and MANDB_MAP arguments to add_to_dirlist in manp.c, (2) a long pathname to ult_src in ult_src.c, (3) a long .so argument to test_for_include in ult_src.c, (4) a long MANPATH environment variable, or (5) a long PATH environment variable.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2003-07-29","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2003-07-29","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"22971","stars":null,"title":"ManDB Utility 2.3/2.4 - Local Buffer Overflow"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0620","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2003"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0621"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0619"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2003-08-01","related":[{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0124","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-09-01"},{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0645","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-08-14"}],"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 exploit buffer overflows in setuid man-db to gain elevated privileges via crafted environment variables or arguments.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0620/"}
