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-2007-4799/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4799/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-4799","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4799/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-4799","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xvwg-32hp-p5p5"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"aix","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":4.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The perfstat kernel extension in bos.perf.perfstat in AIX 5.3 does not verify privileges when processing a SET call, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system hang or crash) via unspecified SET operations.","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":"The perfstat kernel extension in bos.perf.perfstat in AIX 5.3 does not verify privileges when processing a SET call, which allows local user","id":"CVE-2007-4799","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ibm:aix","products":["ibm:aix"],"type":null,"year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4802"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4798"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-09-10","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"AIX Code Execution","id":"CVE-2025-36250","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"IBM AIX command execution","id":"CVE-2024-56346","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-18"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-3187","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-30"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3699","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-10-15"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3517","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-10-01"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-5008","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-09-27"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-4272","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-12-15"}],"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":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4799/"}
