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-2013-6016 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: F5 Big-Ip Access Policy Manager. 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-2013-6016/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6016/index.md)","id":"CVE-2013-6016","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6016/index.md","name":"CVE-2013-6016","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4776-8p53-v33g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"F5 BIG-IP load balancer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service in F5 BIG-IP devices by triggering a TCP state error that crashes the Traffic Management Microkernel.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"certcc","cpe":[{"product":"big-ip_access_policy_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_application_security_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_edge_gateway","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_global_traffic_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_link_controller","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_local_traffic_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_protocol_security_module","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_wan_optimization_manager","vendor":"f5"},{"product":"big-ip_webaccelerator","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"The Traffic Management Microkernel (TMM) in F5 BIG-IP LTM, APM, ASM, Edge Gateway, GTM, Link Controller, and WOM 10.0.0 through 10.2.2 and 11.0.0; Analytics 11.0.0; PSM 9.4.0 through 9.4.8, 10.0.0 through 10.2.4, and 11.0.0 through 11.4.1; and WebAccelerator 9.4.0 through 9.4.8, 10.0.0 through 10.2.4, and 11.0.0 through 11.3.0 might change a TCP connection to the ESTABLISHED state before receiving the ACK packet, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (SIGFPE or assertion failure and TMM restart) via unspecified vectors.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-6016","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"f5:big-ip_access_policy_manager","products":["f5:big-ip_access_policy_manager","f5:big-ip_application_security_manager","f5:big-ip_edge_gateway","f5:big-ip_global_traffic_manager","f5:big-ip_link_controller","f5:big-ip_local_traffic_manager","f5:big-ip_protocol_security_module","f5:big-ip_webaccelerator"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2013"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-6017"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-6015"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2013-10-26","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Configuration Utility Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2023-46747","kev_date_added":"2023-10-31","published":"2023-10-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Missing Authentication","id":"CVE-2022-1388","kev_date_added":"2022-05-10","published":"2022-05-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP and BIG-IQ Centralized Management iControl REST Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2021-22986","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-03-31"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Traffic Management Microkernel Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2021-22991","kev_date_added":"2022-01-18","published":"2021-03-31"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Traffic Management User Interface (TMUI) Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-5902","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-07-01"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP APM Heap-based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2026-94127","kev_date_added":"2026-09-22","published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Stack-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2025-53521","kev_date_added":"2026-03-27","published":"2025-10-15"}],"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 F5 BIG-IP devices by triggering a TCP state error that crashes the Traffic Management Microkernel.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6016/"}
