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-2008-0983 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-2008-0983/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0983/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-0983","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0983/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-0983","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2008-0983","DSA-1609-1","GHSA-fxrf-v868-58jw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"lighttpd web server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash the lighttpd web server by opening many connections, causing a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"lighttpd","vendor":"lighttpd"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-399","name":null}],"description":"lighttpd 1.4.18, and possibly other versions before 1.5.0, does not properly calculate the size of a file descriptor array, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large number of connections, which triggers an out-of-bounds access.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0983","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":17,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0984"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0982"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-02-26","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-11072","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-10"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-3949","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-07-24"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-1870","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-04-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-30780","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-06-11"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"HTTP Header Smuggling via Trailer Merge","id":"CVE-2025-12642","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-03"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4727","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-09-12"},{"cvss_score":6.4,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-3946","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-07-24"}],"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 crash the lighttpd web server by opening many connections, causing a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-0983/"}
