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-2016-4609 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apple Icloud. 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-2016-4609/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4609/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-4609","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4609/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-4609","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-4609","GHSA-mwcf-3f34-j646","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-4609"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apple iOS/OS X","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via memory corruption in libxslt on Apple operating systems and related software.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apple","cpe":[{"product":"icloud","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"iphone_os","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"itunes","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"mac_os_x","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"tvos","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"watchos","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"libxslt","vendor":"xmlsoft"}],"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":"libxslt in Apple iOS before 9.3.3, OS X before 10.11.6, iTunes before 12.4.2 on Windows, iCloud before 5.2.1 on Windows, tvOS before 9.2.2, and watchOS before 2.2.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-4607, CVE-2016-4608, CVE-2016-4610, and CVE-2016-4612.","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-2016-4609","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apple:icloud","products":["apple:icloud","apple:iphone_os","apple:itunes","apple:mac_os_x","apple:tvos","apple:watchos","debian:debian_linux","fedoraproject:fedora"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":15,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4610"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4608"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-07-22","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Apple Multiple Products Type Confusion","id":"CVE-2019-8506","kev_date_added":"2022-05-04","published":"2019-12-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apple Multiple Products Type Confusion","id":"CVE-2020-27932","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-12-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in iOS","id":"CVE-2019-8746","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in iOS","id":"CVE-2019-8749","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in iOS","id":"CVE-2019-8756","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-27"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in Safari","id":"CVE-2020-9895","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in Safari","id":"CVE-2020-9850","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-09"}],"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":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via memory corruption in libxslt on Apple operating systems and related software.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4609/"}
