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-2008-5514 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-2008-5514/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5514/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-5514","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5514/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-5514","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2008-5514","GHSA-9m53-2xrc-rq26"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"UW c-client library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An off-by-one error in the UW c-client library allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted email message.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"imap","vendor":"university_of_washington"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Off-by-one error in the rfc822_output_char function in the RFC822BUFFER routines in the University of Washington (UW) c-client library, as used by the UW IMAP toolkit before imap-2007e and other applications, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an e-mail message that triggers a buffer overflow.","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-2008-5514","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":10,"next":{"headline":"Directory Traversal in Apache Tomcat","id":"CVE-2008-5515"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5513"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2008-12-23","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0920","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-03-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0847","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-01-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0284","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-04-26"},{"cvss_score":2.1,"headline":"Race condition in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1197","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-09-12"}],"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":"An off-by-one error in the UW c-client library allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted email message.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-5514/"}
