It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2011-3149 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-2011-3149/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-3149/index.md)","id":"CVE-2011-3149","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-3149/index.md","name":"CVE-2011-3149","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2011-3149","GHSA-5wc7-486v-w943"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux PAM module","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can cause a denial of service via CPU consumption in the pam_env module due to improper handling of environment variable expansion.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"linux-pam","vendor":"linux-pam"}],"cvss":{"score":2.1,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The _expand_arg function in the pam_env module (modules/pam_env/pam_env.c) in Linux-PAM (aka pam) before 1.1.5 does not properly handle when environment variable expansion can overflow, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption).","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-2011-3149","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2011"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3150"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3148"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2012-07-22","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-28321","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-19"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in pam","id":"CVE-2020-27780","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-12-17"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-4708","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-01-24"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-3853","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-01-24"},{"cvss_score":6.6,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-0887","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-03-12"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-3238","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-08-24"},{"cvss_score":5.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-2583","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-04-10"}],"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":"Local attackers can cause a denial of service via CPU consumption in the pam_env module due to improper handling of environment variable expansion.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2011-3149/"}
