An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2009-5024 in the wild and no public exploit code.\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-2009-5024/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-5024/index.md)","id":"CVE-2009-5024","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-5024/index.md","name":"CVE-2009-5024","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hwcj-q6q8-r3j3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ViewVC version control","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass resource limits in ViewVC to cause denial of service via crafted query requests.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"viewvc","vendor":"viewvc"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-399","name":null}],"description":"ViewVC before 1.1.11 allows remote attackers to bypass the cvsdb row_limit configuration setting, and consequently conduct resource-consumption attacks, via the limit parameter, as demonstrated by a \"query revision history\" request.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-5024","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2009"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in PyForum","id":"CVE-2009-5025"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-5023"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2011-05-23","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"ViewVC's standalone server exposes arbitrary server filesystem content","id":"CVE-2025-54141","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-22"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0005","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-01-29"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-5442","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-10-21"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"ViewVC XSS vulnerability in revision view changed paths","id":"CVE-2023-22456","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-03"},{"cvss_score":5.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-4325","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-09-30"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"ViewVC XSS vulnerability in revision view changed path \"copyfrom\" locations","id":"CVE-2023-22464","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-04"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-3356","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-07-22"}],"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 bypass resource limits in ViewVC to cause denial of service via crafted query requests.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2009-5024/"}
