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-2009-10006 exists.\n\nAffected product: UFO: Alien Invasion. 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-2009-10006/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-10006/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-10006","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-10006/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-10006","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-mj5x-v9m2-c9jh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"UFO Alien Invasion game","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A stack-based buffer overflow in the game's IRC client allows arbitrary code execution when connecting to a malicious server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-121","name":"Stack-based Buffer Overflow"}],"description":"UFO: Alien Invasion versions up to and including 2.2.1 contain a buffer overflow vulnerability in its built-in IRC client component. When the client connects to an IRC server and receives a crafted numeric reply (specifically a 001 message), the application fails to properly validate the length of the response string. This results in a stack-based buffer overflow, which may corrupt control flow structures and allow arbitrary code execution. The vulnerability is triggered during automatic IRC connection handling and does not require user interaction beyond launching the game.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2009-10-28","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":2,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2009-10-28","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/osx/misc/ufo_ai","stars":null,"title":"UFO: Alien Invasion IRC Client Buffer Overflow"},{"date":"2009-10-28","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/windows/misc/ufo_ai","stars":null,"title":"UFO: Alien Invasion IRC Client Buffer Overflow"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"UFO: Alien Invasion \u003c= 2.2.1 IRC Client Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2009-10006","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Catalyst::Plugin::Authentication versions before 0.10_027 for Perl is susceptible to session fixation attacks","id":"CVE-2009-10007"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ContentKeeper Web Appliance \u003c 125.10 Arbitrary File Access via mimencode","id":"CVE-2009-10005"},"products":["UFO: Alien Invasion"],"published":"2025-08-22","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-15","vendors":["UFO: Alien Invasion Project"]},"summary":"A stack-based buffer overflow in the game's IRC client allows arbitrary code execution when connecting to a malicious server.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-10006/"}
