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-2003-0848 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-2003-0848/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0848/index.md)","id":"CVE-2003-0848","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0848/index.md","name":"CVE-2003-0848","record":{"aliases":["DSA-428","GHSA-pv8c-73v5-8vpj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux slocate utility","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can gain privileges by exploiting a heap-based buffer overflow in slocate via a crafted database file.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"slocate","vendor":"slocate"}],"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":"Heap-based buffer overflow in main.c of slocate 2.6, and possibly other versions, may allow local users to gain privileges via a modified slocate database that causes a negative \"pathlen\" value to be used.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2003-10-06","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2003-10-06","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"23228","stars":null,"title":"SLocate 2.6 - User-Supplied Database Heap Overflow"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0848","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2003"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":23,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0849"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0847"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2003-10-09","related":[{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0056","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-02-01"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-0227","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-01-13"},{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0326","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-05-22"},{"cvss_score":2.1,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2499","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-08-22"}],"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 gain privileges by exploiting a heap-based buffer overflow in slocate via a crafted database file.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2003-0848/"}
