Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2008-6899 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-2008-6899/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6899/index.md)","id":"CVE-2008-6899","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6899/index.md","name":"CVE-2008-6899","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3642-x49m-7rpc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SSH server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated users can execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via buffer overflows in SFTP commands.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"freesshd","vendor":"freesshd"}],"cvss":{"score":9,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/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":"Multiple buffer overflows in freeSSHd 1.2.1 allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via a long (1) open, (2) unlink, (3) mkdir, (4) rmdir, or (5) stat SFTP command.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2009-03-27","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2009-03-27","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"8295","stars":null,"title":"freeSSHd 1.2.1 - 'rename' Remote Buffer Overflow (SEH)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6899","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2008"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"File upload in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6900"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-6898"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-08-05","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-9853","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-6066","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-12-04"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4762","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-10-28"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2573","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-06-06"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000475","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-24"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"freeSSHd denial of service","id":"CVE-2024-0723","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-01-19"}],"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":"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 authenticated users can execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via buffer overflows in SFTP commands.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2008-6899/"}
