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-2012-4999 exists.\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-2012-4999/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4999/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-4999","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-4999/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-4999","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p5jq-469q-mxmf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mercury router","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service on Mercury MR804 routers by sending crafted HTTP header fields.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mr804","vendor":"mercurycom"},{"product":"mr804_firmware","vendor":"mercurycom"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:A/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Mercury MR804 Router 8.0 3.8.1 Build 101220 Rel.53006nB allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (service hang) via a crafted string in HTTP header fields such as (1) If-Modified-Since, (2) If-None-Match, or (3) If-Unmodified-Since.
