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-2003-0659 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 2000. 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-2003-0659/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0659/index.md)","id":"CVE-2003-0659","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0659/index.md","name":"CVE-2003-0659","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r2mc-qrj9-9325"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows OS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code and escalate privileges via buffer overflows in Windows User32.dll ListBox and ComboBox controls.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"windows_2000","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_2003_server","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_nt","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_xp","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Buffer overflow in a function in User32.dll on Windows NT through Server 2003 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via long (1) LB_DIR messages to ListBox or (2) CB_DIR messages to ComboBox controls in a privileged application.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":2,"first_seen":"2003-10-15","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2003-10-15","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"23255","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft ListBox/ComboBox Control - 'User32.dll' Buffer Overrun"},{"date":"2003-11-14","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"122","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Windows - ListBox/ComboBox Control Local (MS03-045)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0659","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_2000","products":["microsoft:windows_2000","microsoft:windows_2003_server","microsoft:windows_nt","microsoft:windows_xp"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2003"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0660"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0658"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2003-10-17","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2008-4250","kev_date_added":"2026-05-20","published":"2008-10-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Kernel Exception Handler","id":"CVE-2010-0232","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2010-01-21"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2009-1123","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2009-06-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2002-0367","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2003-04-02"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0269","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-04-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0231","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-02-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3677","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-12-09"}],"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 execute arbitrary code and escalate privileges via buffer overflows in Windows User32.dll ListBox and ComboBox controls.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0659/"}
