An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2014-8873 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Oracle Openjdk. 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-2014-8873/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8873/index.md)","id":"CVE-2014-8873","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8873/index.md","name":"CVE-2014-8873","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8crp-v9pf-hp45"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Debian Java package","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a malicious JAR file due to improper MIME type registration in the Debian OpenJDK package.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"openjdk","vendor":"oracle"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"A .desktop file in the Debian openjdk-7 package 7u79-2.5.5-1~deb8u1 includes a MIME type registration that is added to /etc/mailcap by mime-support, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a JAR file.","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":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8873","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"oracle:openjdk","products":["oracle:openjdk"],"type":"code_injection","year":"2014"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8874"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-8872"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-11-09","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-0462","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-2405","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in containers/openjdk","id":"CVE-2021-20264","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-06"},{"cvss_score":4.4,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1876","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-02-10"}],"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":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a malicious JAR file due to improper MIME type registration in the Debian OpenJDK package.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2014-8873/"}
