An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2008-1309 exists.\n\nAffected product: Realnetworks Realplayer. 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-2008-1309/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1309/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-1309","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1309/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-1309","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g64h-446x-5j6x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"RealPlayer media player","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or crash the browser via a use-after-free vulnerability in the RealPlayer ActiveX control triggered by long string assignments.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"realplayer","vendor":"realnetworks"}],"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-399","name":null}],"description":"The RealAudioObjects.RealAudio ActiveX control in rmoc3260.dll in RealNetworks RealPlayer Enterprise, RealPlayer 10, RealPlayer 10.5 before build 6.0.12.1675, and RealPlayer 11 before 11.0.3 build 6.0.14.806 does not properly manage memory for the (1) Console or (2) Controls property, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (browser crash) via a series of assignments of long string values, which triggers an overwrite of freed heap memory.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":2,"first_seen":"2008-03-08","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-03-08","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/windows/browser/realplayer_console","stars":null,"title":"RealPlayer rmoc3260.dll ActiveX Control Heap Corruption"},{"date":"2008-04-01","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"5332","stars":null,"title":"Real Player - 'rmoc3260.dll' ActiveX Control Remote Code Execution"},{"date":"2010-06-15","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"16584","stars":null,"title":"RealPlayer - 'rmoc3260.dll' ActiveX Control Heap Corruption (Metasploit)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1309","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"realnetworks:realplayer","products":["realnetworks:realplayer"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":13,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1310"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1308"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-03-12","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4244","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-11-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4245","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-11-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4246","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-11-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4249","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-11-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4250","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-11-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4253","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-11-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-4254","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-11-24"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or crash the browser via a use-after-free vulnerability in the RealPlayer ActiveX control triggered by long string assignments.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-1309/"}
