It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-4484 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-2016-4484/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4484/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-4484","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4484/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-4484","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-4484","GHSA-gv5v-vgx2-hgvr","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-4484"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Debian initrd script","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Physically proximate attackers can gain shell access by repeatedly attempting invalid passwords during boot, bypassing authentication in the initrd script.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"cryptsetup","vendor":"cryptsetup_project"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:P/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"The Debian initrd script for the cryptsetup package 2:1.7.3-2 and earlier allows physically proximate attackers to gain shell access via many log in attempts with an invalid password.","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":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4484","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4485"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4483"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-01-23","related":[{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Security feature bypass in cryptsetup","id":"CVE-2021-4122","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-24"}],"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":"Physically proximate attackers can gain shell access by repeatedly attempting invalid passwords during boot, bypassing authentication in the initrd script.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4484/"}
