It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2008-2812 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Canonical Ubuntu Linux. 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-2008-2812/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-2812/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-2812","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-2812/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-2812","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g469-pq25-x2qr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local users can crash the system or potentially gain privileges via NULL pointer dereferences in Linux kernel tty drivers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"communication_manager","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"expanded_meet-me_conferencing","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"intuity_audix_lx","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"meeting_exchange","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"message_networking","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"messaging_storage_server","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"proactive_contact","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"sip_enablement_services","vendor":"avaya"},{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"},{"product":"linux_desktop","vendor":"novell"},{"product":"opensuse","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"suse_linux_enterprise_desktop","vendor":"suse"},{"product":"suse_linux_enterprise_server","vendor":"suse"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"The Linux kernel before 2.6.25.10 does not properly perform tty operations, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly gain privileges via vectors involving NULL pointer dereference of function pointers in (1) hamradio/6pack.c, (2) hamradio/mkiss.c, (3) irda/irtty-sir.c, (4) ppp_async.c, (5) ppp_synctty.c, (6) slip.c, (7) wan/x25_asy.c, and (8) wireless/strip.c in drivers/net/.","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":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2812","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","debian:debian_linux","linux:linux_kernel","opensuse:opensuse","suse:suse_linux_enterprise_desktop","suse:suse_linux_enterprise_server"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":33,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2813"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2811"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-07-09","related":[{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6708","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6709","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6710","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6711","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5709","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-12-24"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6706","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-04-10"}],"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":"Local users can crash the system or potentially gain privileges via NULL pointer dereferences in Linux kernel tty drivers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-2812/"}
