An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2009-1537 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2009-1537 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Microsoft Windows 2000, published on 29 May 2009. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2009-1537 in the wild since at least 20 May 2026.\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-2009-1537/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-1537/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-1537","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-1537/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-1537","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qvw7-mg6g-qm9m"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows DirectX","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a crafted QuickTime media file exploiting a NULL byte overwrite in the DirectX Movie Parser Filter.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"directx","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_2000","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_2003_server","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2003","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_xp","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-158","name":"Improper Neutralization of Null Byte or NUL Character"}],"description":"Unspecified vulnerability in the QuickTime Movie Parser Filter in quartz.dll in DirectShow in Microsoft DirectX 7.0 through 9.0c on Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP SP2 and SP3, and Windows Server 2003 SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted QuickTime media file, as exploited in the wild in May 2009, aka \"DirectX NULL Byte Overwrite 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 DirectX NULL Byte Overwrite","id":"CVE-2009-1537","indexable":true,"kev":{"dateAdded":"2026-05-20","dueDate":"2026-06-03","knownRansomwareCampaignUse":"Unknown","product":"DirectX","requiredAction":"Apply mitigations per vendor instructions, follow applicable BOD 22-01 guidance for cloud services, or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.","vendorProject":"Microsoft","vulnerabilityName":"Microsoft DirectX NULL Byte Overwrite Vulnerability"},"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_2000","products":["microsoft:windows_2000","microsoft:windows_2003_server","microsoft:windows_server_2003","microsoft:windows_xp"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":13,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1538"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ASP.NET in Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 SP1 and SP2 and 3.5 Gold and SP1, when ASP 2.0 is used in integrated mode on IIS 7.0, does not prope","id":"CVE-2009-1536"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-05-29","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-1537","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-12-12"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-1879","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-06-08"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-1880","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-06-08"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1538","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-07-15"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-1539","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-07-15"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0084","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-04-15"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"active","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-21","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a crafted QuickTime media file exploiting a NULL byte overwrite in the DirectX Movie Parser Filter.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-1537/"}
