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-2016-4459 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Redhat Enterprise 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-2016-4459/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4459/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-4459","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4459/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-4459","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wcxv-fwxr-qwf7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"mod_cluster connector","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A stack-based buffer overflow in mod_cluster allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"},{"product":"mod_cluster","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Stack-based buffer overflow in native/mod_manager/node.c in mod_cluster 1.2.9.","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-2016-4459","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"redhat:enterprise_linux","products":["redhat:enterprise_linux"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4460"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2016-4458"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-04-12","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Red Hat JBoss RichFaces Framework Expression Language Injection","id":"CVE-2018-14667","kev_date_added":"2023-09-28","published":"2018-11-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing fixes for CVE-2021-40438 and CVE-2021-26691 in the versions of httpd, as shipped in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5.0, causes a securit","id":"CVE-2021-20325","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in libwebp","id":"CVE-2018-25011","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in libwebp","id":"CVE-2018-25014","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Supply chain in redhat-upgrade-tool","id":"CVE-2014-3585","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-22"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Squid: request/response smuggling in http/1.1 and icap","id":"CVE-2023-46846","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-03"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in libwebp","id":"CVE-2018-25009","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-21"}],"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":"A stack-based buffer overflow in mod_cluster allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4459/"}
