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-2016-4074 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-2016-4074/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4074/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-4074","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4074/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-4074","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2016-4074","AZL-6505","DEBIAN-CVE-2016-4074","GHSA-63w9-2p7c-mwwp","SUSE-SU-2017:2950-1","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-4074","USN-4787-1","openSUSE-SU-2017:2833-1","openSUSE-SU-2017:2834-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:10881-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"jq JSON processor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via stack consumption and application crash by providing a crafted JSON file to jq.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"jq","vendor":"jq_project"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"}],"description":"The jv_dump_term function in jq 1.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption and application crash) via a crafted JSON file.
