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-2016-5762 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Novell Groupwise. 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-2016-5762/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5762/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-5762","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5762/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-5762","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8g79-27jh-fr2j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GroupWise mail server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via a heap-based buffer overflow triggered by integer overflow in the Post Office Agent.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microfocus","cpe":[{"product":"groupwise","vendor":"novell"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-190","name":"Integer Overflow or Wraparound"}],"description":"Integer overflow in the Post Office Agent in Novell GroupWise before 2014 R2 Service Pack 1 Hot Patch 1 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) username or (2) password, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-5762","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"novell:groupwise","products":["novell:groupwise"],"type":"integer_overflow","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in Novell Open Enterprise Server 11 and 2015","id":"CVE-2016-5763"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-5761"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-04-20","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-0610","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-09-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-0804","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-02-24"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-0417","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-09-28"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-0271","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-09-19"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0333","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-08"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-0334","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-08"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-2662","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-10-08"}],"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 execute arbitrary code via a heap-based buffer overflow triggered by integer overflow in the Post Office Agent.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5762/"}
