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-2006-6164 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Openbsd Openbsd. 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-2006-6164/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6164/index.md)","id":"CVE-2006-6164","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6164/index.md","name":"CVE-2006-6164","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xq8r-c6vq-9553"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenBSD OS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit improper environment variable handling in the ELF loader to inject LD_PRELOAD and gain elevated privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"openbsd","vendor":"openbsd"}],"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 _dl_unsetenv function in loader.c in the ELF ld.so in OpenBSD 3.9 and 4.0 does not properly remove duplicate environment variables, which allows local users to pass dangerous variables such as LD_PRELOAD to loading processes, which might be leveraged to gain privileges.","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-2006-6164","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"openbsd:openbsd","products":["openbsd:openbsd"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2006"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6165"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6163"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2006-11-29","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-1365","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-03-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0220","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-03-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0083","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-02-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0084","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-02-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0284","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-07"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1010","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-01-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-16088","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-07-28"}],"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":"Local attackers can exploit improper environment variable handling in the ELF loader to inject LD_PRELOAD and gain elevated privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6164/"}
