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-2016-2849 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Debian Debian 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-2016-2849/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-2849/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-2849","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-2849/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-2849","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pfgh-27pp-8vx8","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-2849"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Botan crypto library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can recover ECDSA secret keys via timing side-channel attacks due to non-constant-time modular inverse operations in the Botan library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"botan","vendor":"botan_project"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/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":"Botan before 1.10.13 and 1.11.x before 1.11.29 do not use a constant-time algorithm to perform a modular inverse on the signature nonce k, which might allow remote attackers to obtain ECDSA secret keys via a timing side-channel attack.","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-2016-2849","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"debian:debian_linux","products":["debian:debian_linux","fedoraproject:fedora"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2850"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2848"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-05-13","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-24115","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-02-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-9127","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-7826","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6878","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9132","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-01-30"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2195","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-05-13"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-2196","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-05-13"}],"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 recover ECDSA secret keys via timing side-channel attacks due to non-constant-time modular inverse operations in the Botan library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-2849/"}
