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-2016-4802 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Haxx Curl. 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-2016-4802/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4802/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-4802","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4802/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-4802","record":{"aliases":["CURL-CVE-2016-4802","GHSA-7g2f-f5p3-7xg4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"cURL library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code via DLL hijacking in cURL when SSPI or telnet is enabled.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"curl","vendor":"haxx"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Multiple untrusted search path vulnerabilities in cURL and libcurl before 7.49.1, when built with SSPI or telnet is enabled, allow local users to execute arbitrary code and conduct DLL hijacking attacks via a Trojan horse (1) security.dll, (2) secur32.dll, or (3) ws2_32.dll in the application or current working directory.","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":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4802","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"haxx:curl","products":["haxx:curl"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4803"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Jetty contains an alias issue that could allow unauthenticated remote code execution due to specially crafted request","id":"CVE-2016-4800"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-06-24","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Negotiate ambient user conn reuse","id":"CVE-2026-19931","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"HTTP/2 stream-dependency tree UAF","id":"CVE-2026-10536","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"cross-origin Digest auth state leak","id":"CVE-2026-11856","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SASL double-free","id":"CVE-2026-8925","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"stale proxy password leak","id":"CVE-2026-9079","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in curl","id":"CVE-2016-4606","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9953","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-12"}],"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":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code via DLL hijacking in cURL when SSPI or telnet is enabled.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-4802/"}
