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-2009-2525 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2009-2525 is a critical memory corruption vulnerability in Microsoft Windows 2000, published on 14 Oct 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: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2009-2525 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2009-2525/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2525/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-2525","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2525/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-2525","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9fcw-h273-v9r3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows Media Runtime","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via crafted media files or streaming content due to heap corruption in Windows Media Runtime components.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_2000","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_media_format_runtime","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_media_player","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":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"Microsoft Windows Media Runtime, as used in DirectShow WMA Voice Codec, Windows Media Audio Voice Decoder, and Audio Compression Manager (ACM), does not properly initialize unspecified functions within compressed audio files, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a crafted media file or (2) crafted streaming content, aka \"Windows Media Runtime Heap Corruption Vulnerability.\"","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2525","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_2000","products":["microsoft:windows_2000","microsoft:windows_media_player","microsoft:windows_server_2003","microsoft:windows_server_2008","microsoft:windows_vista","microsoft:windows_xp"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2526"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-2524"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-10-14","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 Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2009-1123","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2009-06-10"},{"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":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via crafted media files or streaming content due to heap corruption in Windows Media Runtime components.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-2525/"}
