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-2008-2242 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-2008-2242/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-2242/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-2242","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-2242/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-2242","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mfqc-h8gp-97w2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Backup server software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via buffer overflows in CA BrightStor ARCServe Backup server functions.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"brightstor_arcserve_backup","vendor":"broadcom"},{"product":"brightstor_arcserve_backup","vendor":"ca"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Multiple buffer overflows in xdr functions in the server in CA BrightStor ARCServe Backup 11.0, 11.1, and 11.5 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated by a stack-based buffer overflow via a long parameter to the xdr_rwsstring function.","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":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2242","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2008-2243"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2241"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-05-21","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3175","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-08-01"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2241","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-05-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5325","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5326","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5327","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5328","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-5329","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-10-13"}],"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 buffer overflows in CA BrightStor ARCServe Backup server functions.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-2242/"}
