Limit exposure of the affected software until one is available.","what":"CVE-2015-8577 is a low-severity vulnerability in n/a, published on 16 Dec 2015."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2015-8577 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2015-8577 is a low-severity vulnerability in n/a, published on 16 Dec 2015. \nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-8577 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-2015-8577/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8577/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-8577","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8577/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-8577","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hmcg-84c5-h52c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"unknown","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Antivirus software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass DEP and ASLR protections in McAfee VirusScan Enterprise due to predictable RWX memory allocations, facilitating further exploitation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"virusscan_enterprise","vendor":"mcafee"}],"cvss":{"score":2.6,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The Buffer Overflow Protection (BOP) feature in McAfee VirusScan Enterprise before 8.8 Patch 6 allocates memory with Read, Write, Execute (RWX) permissions at predictable addresses on 32-bit platforms when protecting another application, which allows attackers to bypass the DEP and ASLR protection mechanisms 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":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8577","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8578"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2015-8576"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-12-16","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-5118","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-08-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege Escalation vulnerability through symbolic links in VSE for Windows","id":"CVE-2020-7266","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege Escalation vulnerability through symbolic links in VSEL","id":"CVE-2020-7267","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-08"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Auth bypass in VirusScan Enterprise Linux (VSEL)","id":"CVE-2016-8023","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-14"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Other in VirusScan Enterprise Linux (VSEL)","id":"CVE-2016-8024","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-14"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Code injection in VirusScan Enterprise Linux (VSEL)","id":"CVE-2016-8020","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-14"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-2152","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-04-19"}],"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":"Attackers can bypass DEP and ASLR protections in McAfee VirusScan Enterprise due to predictable RWX memory allocations, facilitating further exploitation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-8577/"}
