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-2008-5405 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-2008-5405/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5405/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-5405","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5405/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-5405","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rq9h-384r-f2cc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Password recovery tool","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code by tricking users into opening a malicious RDP file in Cain \u0026 Abel.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"cain_and_abel","vendor":"oxid"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/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":"Stack-based buffer overflow in the RDP protocol password decoder in Cain \u0026 Abel 4.9.23 and 4.9.24, and possibly earlier, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an RDP file containing a long string.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":4,"first_seen":"2008-11-30","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2008-11-30","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"7297","stars":null,"title":"Cain \u0026 Abel 4.9.23 - '.rdp' Buffer Overflow (PoC)"},{"date":"2008-11-30","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"7309","stars":null,"title":"Cain \u0026 Abel 4.9.24 - '.rdp' Local Stack Overflow"},{"date":"2008-11-30","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/windows/fileformat/cain_abel_4918_rdp","stars":null,"title":"Cain and Abel RDP Buffer Overflow"},{"date":"2008-12-03","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"7329","stars":null,"title":"Cain \u0026 Abel 4.9.23 - '.rdp' Local Buffer Overflow"},{"date":"2010-11-24","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"16659","stars":null,"title":"Cain \u0026 Abel 4.9.24 - RDP Buffer Overflow (Metasploit)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5405","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":9,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5406"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5404"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-12-09","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0807","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-03-20"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"},{"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 execute arbitrary code by tricking users into opening a malicious RDP file in Cain \u0026 Abel.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5405/"}
