An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2008-0947 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Mit Kerberos 5. 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-2008-0947/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0947/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-0947","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0947/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-0947","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2008-0947","GHSA-w9c3-3cvm-x4wm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MIT Kerberos library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in the MIT Kerberos RPC library by exhausting file descriptors.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"kerberos_5","vendor":"mit"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/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 RPC library used by libgssrpc and kadmind in MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) 1.4 through 1.6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering a large number of open file descriptors.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0947","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"mit:kerberos_5","products":["mit:kerberos_5"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":38,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0948"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0946"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-03-19","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0285","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-04-15"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5902","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-12-06"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4743","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-09-06"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-3999","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-09-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0514","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-10-13"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in krb5 1.5","id":"CVE-2017-15088","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-23"}],"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":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in the MIT Kerberos RPC library by exhausting file descriptors.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0947/"}
