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-2014-3556 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-2014-3556/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3556/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-3556","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3556/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-3556","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2014-3556","GHSA-8277-2g6w-24gq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"nginx SMTP proxy","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Man-in-the-middle attackers can inject cleartext commands into encrypted SMTP sessions via nginx's STARTTLS implementation, compromising email integrity.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"nginx","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-77","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in a Command"}],"description":"The STARTTLS implementation in mail/ngx_mail_smtp_handler.c in the SMTP proxy in nginx 1.5.x and 1.6.x before 1.6.1 and 1.7.x before 1.7.4 does not properly restrict I/O buffering, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to insert commands into encrypted SMTP sessions by sending a cleartext command that is processed after TLS is in place, related to a \"plaintext command injection\" attack, a similar issue to CVE-2011-0411.","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":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3556","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2014-3557"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-3555"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2014-12-29","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1247","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-11-29"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Memory corruption in Nginx Web Server, Nginx Plus","id":"CVE-2021-23017","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-06-01"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-0088","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-04-29"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-0133","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-03-28"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-4547","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-11-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-0337","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-10-27"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-2028","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-07-18"}],"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":"Man-in-the-middle attackers can inject cleartext commands into encrypted SMTP sessions via nginx's STARTTLS implementation, compromising email integrity.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-3556/"}
