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-2008-5351 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Sun Jdk. 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-2008-5351/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5351/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-5351","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5351/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-5351","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-79wc-h5f5-pq4h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Java Runtime Environment","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass security mechanisms in applications relying on shortest-form UTF-8 validation by exploiting non-canonical encoding acceptance in the Java Runtime Environment.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"jdk","vendor":"sun"},{"product":"jre","vendor":"sun"},{"product":"sdk","vendor":"sun"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for Sun JDK and JRE 6 Update 10 and earlier; JDK and JRE 5.0 Update 16 and earlier; and SDK and JRE 1.4.2_18 and earlier accepts UTF-8 encodings that are not the \"shortest\" form, which makes it easier for attackers to bypass protection mechanisms for other applications that rely on shortest-form UTF-8 encodings.","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":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5351","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"sun:jdk","products":["sun:jdk","sun:jre","sun:sdk"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":39,"next":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5352"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5350"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-12-05","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3521","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3548","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3549","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3554","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0802","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0814","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0815","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"}],"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 bypass security mechanisms in applications relying on shortest-form UTF-8 validation by exploiting non-canonical encoding acceptance in the Java Runtime Environment.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5351/"}
