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-2009-3873 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Sun Jdk. 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-2009-3873/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3873/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-3873","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3873/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-3873","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jgrv-c256-j463"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Java Runtime Environment","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can gain privileges via a crafted JPEG image file exploiting a quantization problem in the Java Image Writer.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"jdk","vendor":"sun"},{"product":"jre","vendor":"sun"},{"product":"sdk","vendor":"sun"}],"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":"The JPEG Image Writer in Sun Java SE in JDK and JRE 5.0 before Update 22, JDK and JRE 6 before Update 17, and SDK and JRE 1.4.x before 1.4.2_24 allows remote attackers to gain privileges via a crafted image file, related to a \"quantization problem,\" aka Bug Id 6862968.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3873","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"sun:jdk","products":["sun:jdk","sun:jre","sun:sdk"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":28,"next":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3874"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3872"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2009-11-05","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Deserialization in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3521","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3548","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3549","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3554","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0802","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0814","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0815","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-06-14"}],"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 gain privileges via a crafted JPEG image file exploiting a quantization problem in the Java Image Writer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-3873/"}
