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-2016-1677 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Canonical Ubuntu Linux. 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-2016-1677/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1677/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-1677","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1677/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-1677","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3hwq-9jq5-p7f9","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-1677"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Google Chrome","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can obtain sensitive information via type confusion in the decodeURI function of the V8 engine.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Chrome","cpe":[{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"chrome","vendor":"google"},{"product":"v8","vendor":"google"},{"product":"leap","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"opensuse","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_desktop","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_server","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"enterprise_linux_workstation","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"linux_enterprise","vendor":"suse"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"uri.js in Google V8 before 5.1.281.26, as used in Google Chrome before 51.0.2704.63, uses an incorrect array type, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by calling the decodeURI function and leveraging \"type confusion.\"","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":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1677","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","debian:debian_linux","google:chrome","opensuse:leap","opensuse:opensuse","redhat:enterprise_linux_desktop","redhat:enterprise_linux_server","redhat:enterprise_linux_workstation","suse:linux_enterprise"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":12,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1678"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1676"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-06-05","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SaltStack Salt Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2020-11651","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-04-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"OpenSMTPD Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-7247","kev_date_added":"2022-03-25","published":"2020-01-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Out-of-bounds Write","id":"CVE-2019-16928","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2019-09-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Exim Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2018-6789","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2018-02-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE and Java SE Embedded Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2015-2590","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2015-07-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle JRE Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2013-0422","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2013-01-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Oracle Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2011-3544","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2011-10-19"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can obtain sensitive information via type confusion in the decodeURI function of the V8 engine.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-1677/"}
