It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, 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-2008-3432 exists.\n\nAffected product: Vim Vim. 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-2008-3432/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3432/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-3432","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3432/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-3432","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2fqm-grvm-7h89"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vim text editor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Heap-based buffer overflow in Vim allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via shell metacharacters in filenames, requiring user interaction to open malicious files.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"vim","vendor":"vim"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/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":"Heap-based buffer overflow in the mch_expand_wildcards function in os_unix.c in Vim 6.2 and 6.3 allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via shell metacharacters in filenames, as demonstrated by the netrw.v3 test case.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2005-01-29","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2005-01-29","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"32225","stars":null,"title":"Vim - 'mch_expand_wildcards()' Heap Buffer Overflow"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3432","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vim:vim","products":["vim:vim"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":22,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3433"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Oracle VirtualBox Insufficient Input Validation","id":"CVE-2008-3431"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-10-10","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-20703","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6349","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-02-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6350","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-02-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-5953","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-02-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3075","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3076","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6235","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-02-21"}],"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":"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":"Heap-based buffer overflow in Vim allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via shell metacharacters in filenames, requiring user interaction to open malicious files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3432/"}
