It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2009-1123 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2009-1123 is a high-severity vulnerability in Microsoft Windows 2000, published on 10 Jun 2009. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2009-1123 in the wild since at least 3 Mar 2022.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 2000. 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-2009-1123/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-1123/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-1123","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-1123/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-1123","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gwqf-cc2p-xjrw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows Kernel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can gain elevated privileges by exploiting improper validation of kernel object changes in Microsoft Windows.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_2000","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2003","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2008","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_vista","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_xp","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"The kernel in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2 and SP3, Server 2003 SP2, Vista Gold, SP1, and SP2, and Server 2008 SP2 does not properly validate changes to unspecified kernel objects, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka \"Windows Kernel Desktop Vulnerability.\"","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"exploited"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2009-1123","indexable":true,"kev":{"dateAdded":"2022-03-03","dueDate":"2022-03-24","knownRansomwareCampaignUse":"Unknown","product":"Windows","requiredAction":"Apply updates per vendor instructions.","vendorProject":"Microsoft","vulnerabilityName":"Microsoft Windows Improper Input Validation Vulnerability"},"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_2000","products":["microsoft:windows_2000","microsoft:windows_server_2003","microsoft:windows_server_2008","microsoft:windows_vista","microsoft:windows_xp"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1124"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"The WebDAV extension in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 on Windows 2000 SP4 does not properly decode URLs, which allows re","id":"CVE-2009-1122"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-06-10","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2008-4250","kev_date_added":"2026-05-20","published":"2008-10-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Kernel Exception Handler","id":"CVE-2010-0232","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2010-01-21"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2002-0367","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2003-04-02"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0269","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-04-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0231","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-02-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3677","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-12-09"}],"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":"open","licence":"CC0 1.0","name":"CISA KEV"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"active","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-10-22","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can gain elevated privileges by exploiting improper validation of kernel object changes in Microsoft Windows.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-1123/"}
