An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, 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-2008-4748 exists.\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-2008-4748/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4748/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-4748","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4748/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-4748","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jj7q-9hhv-3pcp","openSUSE-SU-2024:10906-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"IRC client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash the IRC client or execute code via format string vulnerabilities in URI handling when set as default.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"kvirc","vendor":"kvirc"}],"cvss":{"score":7.6,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Format string vulnerability in the URI handler in KVirc 3.4.0, when set as the default application for processing IRC URIs, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in the irc:// URI.","ecosystems":["openSUSE:Tumbleweed"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2008-10-24","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-10-24","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"6832","stars":null,"title":"KVIrc 3.4.0 - Virgo Remote Format String (PoC)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4748","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2008"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4749"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Tumbleweed","fixed":["5.0.0-4.3"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"kvirc","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/kvirc\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Tumbleweed","source":"openSUSE-SU-2024:10906-1"}],"prev":{"headline":"Unspecified vulnerability in the search feature in Sun Java System LDAP JDK before 4.20 allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensiti","id":"CVE-2008-4747"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-10-27","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2451","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-06-29"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2452","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-06-29"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-7070","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-08-25"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-2785","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-08-02"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"openSUSE"},{"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":"Remote attackers can crash the IRC client or execute code via format string vulnerabilities in URI handling when set as default.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-4748/"}
