It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-6923 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-2015-6923/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-6923/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-6923","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-6923/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-6923","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2c42-4jvc-gq6p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit the ndvbs module to write to arbitrary physical memory and escalate privileges to root.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"satellite_express_protocol","vendor":"vboxcomm"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"The ndvbs module in VBox Communications Satellite Express Protocol 2.3.17.3 allows local users to write to arbitrary physical memory locations and gain privileges via a 0x00000ffd ioctl call.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2015-09-17","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2015-09-17","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"38225","stars":null,"title":"VBox Satellite Express 2.3.17.3 - Arbitrary Write"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-6923","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-6925"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-6922"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-09-21","related":[],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can exploit the ndvbs module to write to arbitrary physical memory and escalate privileges to root.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-6923/"}
