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-2012-6687 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-2012-6687/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6687/index.md)","id":"CVE-2012-6687","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6687/index.md","name":"CVE-2012-6687","record":{"aliases":["AZL-34685","AZL-6418","DEBIAN-CVE-2012-6687","DLA-430-1","DLA-431-1","GHSA-v5rv-9c87-6gww","MGASA-2015-0184","MGASA-2016-0089","OESA-2025-1041"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"FastCGI library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service in the FastCGI library by establishing a large number of connections, leading to a crash.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"fcgi","vendor":"fastcgi"}],"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-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"FastCGI (aka fcgi and libfcgi) 2.4.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault and crash) via a large number of connections.","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-2012-6687","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2012"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2012-6688"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Nokogiri is vulnerable to XML External Entity (XXE) attack","id":"CVE-2012-6685"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-02-19","related":[{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"FCGI versions 0.44 through 0.82, for Perl, include a vulnerable version of the FastCGI fcgi2 (aka fcgi) library","id":"CVE-2025-40907","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-16"}],"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 cause a denial of service in the FastCGI library by establishing a large number of connections, leading to a crash.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2012-6687/"}
