An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2008-3111 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Sun Jdk. 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-2008-3111/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3111/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-3111","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3111/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-3111","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-984m-qj9q-3464"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Java Web Start","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Buffer overflows in Sun Java Web Start allow attackers to execute arbitrary code and escalate privileges via malicious JNLP files.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"jdk","vendor":"sun"},{"product":"jre","vendor":"sun"},{"product":"sdk","vendor":"sun"}],"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-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"},{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Multiple buffer overflows in Sun Java Web Start in JDK and JRE 6 before Update 4, JDK and JRE 5.0 before Update 16, and SDK and JRE 1.4.x before 1.4.2_18 allow context-dependent attackers to gain privileges via an untrusted application, as demonstrated by (a) an application that grants itself privileges to (1) read local files, (2) write to local files, or (3) execute local programs; and as demonstrated by (b) a long value associated with a java-vm-args attribute in a j2se tag in a JNLP file, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow in the GetVMArgsOption function; aka CR 6557220.","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-2008-3111","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"sun:jdk","products":["sun:jdk","sun:jre","sun:sdk"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":32,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3112"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3110"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-07-09","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3521","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3548","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3549","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3554","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0802","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0814","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0815","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"}],"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":"Buffer overflows in Sun Java Web Start allow attackers to execute arbitrary code and escalate privileges via malicious JNLP files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3111/"}
