An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2005-0249 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Symantec Norton Antivirus. 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-2005-0249/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-0249/index.md)","id":"CVE-2005-0249","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-0249/index.md","name":"CVE-2005-0249","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4xqg-rgj7-cf6v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Symantec AntiVirus Library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a crafted UPX compressed file exploiting a heap buffer overflow in the DEC2EXE module.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"antivirus_scan_engine","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"brightmail_antispam","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"client_security","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"gateway_security","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"mail_security","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"norton_antivirus","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"norton_internet_security","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"norton_system_works","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"sav_filter_domino_nt_ports","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"sav_filter_for_domino_nt","vendor":"symantec"},{"product":"web_security","vendor":"symantec"}],"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":"Heap-based buffer overflow in the DEC2EXE module for Symantec AntiVirus Library allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a UPX compressed file containing a negative virtual offset to a crafted PE header.","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":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0249","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"symantec:norton_antivirus","products":["symantec:norton_antivirus"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2005"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0250"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0248"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-02-08","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-0230","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-04-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2758","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-10-05"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-0447","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-05"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-3699","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-05"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0217","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-03-16"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-0231","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-04-25"}],"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":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a crafted UPX compressed file exploiting a heap buffer overflow in the DEC2EXE module.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2005-0249/"}
