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-2016-2148 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-2016-2148/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-2148/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-2148","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-2148/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-2148","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2016-2148","DEBIAN-CVE-2016-2148","GHSA-xch5-p4j5-66mj","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-2148"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"BusyBox DHCP client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can exploit a heap-based buffer overflow in BusyBox's DHCP client to potentially execute code or cause denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"busybox","vendor":"busybox"},{"product":"ubuntu_linux","vendor":"canonical"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Heap-based buffer overflow in the DHCP client (udhcpc) in BusyBox before 1.25.0 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via vectors involving OPTION_6RD parsing.","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":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2148","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"canonical:ubuntu_linux","products":["canonical:ubuntu_linux","debian:debian_linux"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":14,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2149"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2147"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-02-09","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-48174","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in busybox","id":"CVE-2021-42377","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-28391","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-04-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-16544","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-20"},{"cvss_score":8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-1000517","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-06-26"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-39810","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-28"}],"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 exploit a heap-based buffer overflow in BusyBox's DHCP client to potentially execute code or cause denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-2148/"}
