An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2007-5248 exists.\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-2007-5248/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-5248/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-5248","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-5248/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-5248","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c4f5-fw2w-g788"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Doom 3 engine","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or crash the game via format string vulnerabilities in the Punkbuster anti-cheat system.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"doom_3","vendor":"id_software"},{"product":"quake_4","vendor":"id_software"},{"product":"prey","vendor":"take2games"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-134","name":"Use of Externally-Controlled Format String"}],"description":"Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the ID Software Doom 3 engine, as used by Doom 3 1.3.1 and earlier, Quake 4 1.4.2 and earlier, and Prey 1.3 and earlier, when Punkbuster (PB) is enabled, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via format string specifiers in (1) a PB_Y packet to the YPG server or (2) a PB_U packet to UCON.
