An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2007-2162 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Mozilla Firefox. 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-2007-2162/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2162/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-2162","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2162/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-2162","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jv2c-3p5q-6f75"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Web browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash the browser or hang the system by tricking users into visiting a page with malicious JavaScript regex.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"iceweasel","vendor":"gnu"},{"product":"firefox","vendor":"mozilla"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"(1) Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.3 and (2) GNU IceWeasel 2.0.0.3 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (browser crash or system hang) via JavaScript that matches a regular expression against a long string, as demonstrated using /(.)*/.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2162","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"mozilla:firefox","products":["mozilla:firefox"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2163"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2161"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-04-22","related":[],"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 crash the browser or hang the system by tricking users into visiting a page with malicious JavaScript regex.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-2162/"}
