An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2010-4052 exists.\n\nAffected product: Gnu Glibc. 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-2010-4052/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-4052/index.md)","id":"CVE-2010-4052","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-4052/index.md","name":"CVE-2010-4052","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2010-4052","GHSA-xq2p-cgwj-87m3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GNU C Library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service in applications using glibc by submitting regular expressions with adjacent repetition operators, exhausting stack resources.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"glibc","vendor":"gnu"}],"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":"Stack consumption vulnerability in the regcomp implementation in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.11.3, and 2.12.x through 2.12.2, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion) via a regular expression containing adjacent repetition operators, as demonstrated by a {10,}{10,}{10,}{10,} sequence in the proftpd.gnu.c exploit for ProFTPD.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":2,"first_seen":"2010-12-07","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2010-12-07","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"35061","stars":null,"title":"GNU glibc - 'regcomp()' Stack Exhaustion Denial of Service"},{"date":"2011-01-07","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"15935","stars":null,"title":"GNU libc/regcomp(3) - Multiple Vulnerabilities"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-4052","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"gnu:glibc","products":["gnu:glibc"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2010"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-4053"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-4051"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2011-01-13","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"scanf %mc off-by-one heap buffer overflow","id":"CVE-2026-5450","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-25139","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0199","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in glibc","id":"CVE-2019-1010022","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-15"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-3590","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18269","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-11236","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-18"}],"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":"Attackers can cause denial of service in applications using glibc by submitting regular expressions with adjacent repetition operators, exhausting stack resources.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-4052/"}
