An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2009-0177 exists.\n\nAffected product: Vmware Fusion. 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-2009-0177/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-0177/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-0177","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-0177/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-0177","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mxv5-rp33-2rv9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VMware virtualization software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash the VMware authentication daemon by sending excessively long USER or PASS commands, causing a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ace","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"fusion","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"server","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"vmware_player","vendor":"vmware"},{"product":"vmware_workstation","vendor":"vmware"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-399","name":null}],"description":"vmwarebase.dll, as used in the vmware-authd service (aka vmware-authd.exe), in VMware Workstation 6.5.1 build 126130, 6.5.1 and earlier; VMware Player 2.5.1 build 126130, 2.5.1 and earlier; VMware ACE 2.5.1 and earlier; VMware Server 2.0.x before 2.0.1 build 156745; and VMware Fusion before 2.0.2 build 147997 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a long (1) USER or (2) PASS command.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2009-01-02","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2009-01-02","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"7647","stars":null,"title":"VMware 2.5.1 - 'VMware-authd' Remote Denial of Service"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0177","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"vmware:fusion","products":["vmware:fusion","vmware:server"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":12,"next":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0178"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0176"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-01-20","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3732","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-04-12"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3691","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3692","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3693","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3694","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3695","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-3696","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-03"}],"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 attackers can crash the VMware authentication daemon by sending excessively long USER or PASS commands, causing a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-0177/"}
