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-2008-4482 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2008-4482/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4482/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-4482","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4482/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-4482","record":{"aliases":["ECHO-3380-4ff5-deb7","GHSA-37q4-89pv-rvxq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"XML parsing library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service in applications using Xerces-C++ by submitting XML with large maxOccurs values, leading to stack consumption and crashes.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"xerces-c\\+\\+","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"The XML parser in Xerces-C++ before 3.0.0 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption and crash) via an XML schema definition with a large maxOccurs value, which triggers excessive memory consumption during validation of an XML file.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4482","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4483"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4481"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-10-08","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Null dereference in Apache Xerces C++","id":"CVE-2017-12627","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-01"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2099","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-05-13"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"HCL BigFix Platform is vulnerable to an integer overflow in xerces-c++ 3.2.3","id":"CVE-2023-37536","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-11"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Apache Xerces C++: Use-after-free on external DTD scan","id":"CVE-2024-23807","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-02-28"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Use after free in Apache Xerces-C","id":"CVE-2018-1311","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-12-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-0880","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-08"}],"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":"Attackers can cause a denial of service in applications using Xerces-C++ by submitting XML with large maxOccurs values, leading to stack consumption and crashes.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4482/"}
