An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2009-3859 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2009-3859/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3859/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-3859","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3859/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-3859","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2rv9-5cw2-mmfg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Network security scanner","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code or crash the application by tricking users into opening a malicious .rws file.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"retina_network_security_scanner","vendor":"eeye"},{"product":"retina_wifi_scanner","vendor":"eeye"}],"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-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Buffer overflow in eEye Retina WiFi Scanner 1.0.8.68, as used in Retina Network Security Scanner 5.10.14, allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via a .rws file with a long RWS010 entry.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2009-07-10","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2009-07-10","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"9114","stars":null,"title":"eEye Retina WiFi Security Scanner 1.0 - '.rws Parsing' Buffer Overflow (PoC)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3859","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3860"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3858"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-11-04","related":[],"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 execute arbitrary code or crash the application by tricking users into opening a malicious .rws file.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3859/"}
