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-2004-0118 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2004-0118/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0118/index.md)","id":"CVE-2004-0118","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0118/index.md","name":"CVE-2004-0118","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p2pv-p9gr-65xh"],"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 exploit VDM subsystem validation flaws to access kernel memory and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"windows_2000","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_nt","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":"The component for the Virtual DOS Machine (VDM) subsystem in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 does not properly validate system structures, which allows local users to access protected kernel memory and execute arbitrary code.","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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0118","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_2000","products":["microsoft:windows_2000","microsoft:windows_nt"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2004"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":10,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0119"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0117"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2004-04-16","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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-08","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can exploit VDM subsystem validation flaws to access kernel memory and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-0118/"}
