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-2011-1972 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Visio. 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-2011-1972/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-1972/index.md)","id":"CVE-2011-1972","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-1972/index.md","name":"CVE-2011-1972","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4h8m-v678-p6jw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft Visio","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code by tricking users into opening a crafted Visio file, requiring immediate patching.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"visio","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-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Microsoft Visio 2003 SP3, 2007 SP2, and 2010 Gold and SP1 does not properly validate objects in memory during Visio file parsing, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted file, aka \"pStream Release RCE 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-2011-1972","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:visio","products":["microsoft:visio"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2011"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2011-1973"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-1971"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2011-08-10","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office OLE DLL Side Loading","id":"CVE-2016-3235","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2016-06-16"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-2557","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-10-14"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-1888","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-08-15"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-1979","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-08-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0092","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-02-10"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0093","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-02-10"}],"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":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code by tricking users into opening a crafted Visio file, requiring immediate patching.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-1972/"}
