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-2006-6418 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2006-6418/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6418/index.md)","id":"CVE-2006-6418","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6418/index.md","name":"CVE-2006-6418","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m7f5-rr3q-xx76"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"HP Tru64 UNIX","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can gain root privileges on HP Tru64 UNIX via a buffer overflow in the POSIX Threads library triggered by a long environment variable.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"tru64","vendor":"hp"}],"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":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Buffer overflow in the POSIX Threads library (libpthread) on HP Tru64 UNIX 4.0F PK8, 4.0G PK4, and 5.1A PK6 allows local users to gain root privileges via a long PTHREAD_CONFIG environment variable.","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-2006-6418","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2006"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6419"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6417"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2006-12-10","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-1496","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2791","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-22"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4414","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-11-07"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2553","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-05-09"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1616","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-03-25"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-1617","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-03-25"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"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 gain root privileges on HP Tru64 UNIX via a buffer overflow in the POSIX Threads library triggered by a long environment variable.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-6418/"}
