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-2008-4070 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Mozilla Seamonkey. 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-2008-4070/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4070/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-4070","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4070/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-4070","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-47xq-mwq7-mw56"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Thunderbird email client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or crash the application via a long header in a news article, affecting Thunderbird and SeaMonkey users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"seamonkey","vendor":"mozilla"},{"product":"thunderbird","vendor":"mozilla"}],"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-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Heap-based buffer overflow in Mozilla Thunderbird before 2.0.0.17 and SeaMonkey before 1.1.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a long header in a news article, related to \"canceling [a] newsgroup message\" and \"cancelled newsgroup messages.\"","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-2008-4070","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"mozilla:seamonkey","products":["mozilla:seamonkey","mozilla:thunderbird"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":25,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4071"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4069"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-09-27","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-4571","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-09-15"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2210","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-06-25"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-1282","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-03-06"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0304","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-02-29"},{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3385","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-03-22"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-6505","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-12-20"}],"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 or crash the application via a long header in a news article, affecting Thunderbird and SeaMonkey users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4070/"}
