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-2008-3959 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ibm Db2. 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-2008-3959/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3959/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-3959","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3959/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-3959","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h5r2-rjjw-28mj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM DB2 database","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash the IBM DB2 database instance by sending a crafted SQLJRA packet, causing a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"db2","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"IBM DB2 UDB 8.1 before FixPak 16, 8.2 before FixPak 9, and 9.1 before FixPak 4a allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (instance crash) via a crafted SQLJRA packet within a CONNECT/ATTACH data stream that simulates a V7 client connect/attach request.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3959","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ibm:db2","products":["ibm:db2"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3960"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3958"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-09-09","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"IBM DB2 9.5 uses world-writable permissions for nodes.reg, which has unspecified impact and attack vectors.","id":"CVE-2012-1797","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-03-20"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-3731","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-10-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-3193","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-31"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4335","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-12-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3473","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-09-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6820","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-06-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6821","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-06-03"}],"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":"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 crash the IBM DB2 database instance by sending a crafted SQLJRA packet, causing a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-3959/"}
