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-2016-6250 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Libarchive Libarchive. 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-2016-6250/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6250/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-6250","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6250/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-6250","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2016-6250","DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6250","GHSA-m79p-4p7w-x53w","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-6250"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"libarchive","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can trigger an integer overflow in libarchive's ISO9660 writer, leading to application crashes or arbitrary code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"libarchive","vendor":"libarchive"},{"product":"linux","vendor":"oracle"}],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-190","name":"Integer Overflow or Wraparound"}],"description":"Integer overflow in the ISO9660 writer in libarchive before 3.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via vectors related to verifying filename lengths when writing an ISO9660 archive, which trigger a 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":true,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6250","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"libarchive:libarchive","products":["libarchive:libarchive","oracle:linux"],"type":"integer_overflow","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2016-6251"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in F5 BIG-IP, REST Framework Logging","id":"CVE-2016-6249"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-09-21","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-37407","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-1541","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-05-07"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Libarchive: double free at archive_read_format_rar_seek_data() in archive_read_support_format_rar.c","id":"CVE-2025-5914","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-48957","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-48958","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-4300","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-09-21"}],"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":"Remote attackers can trigger an integer overflow in libarchive's ISO9660 writer, leading to application crashes or arbitrary code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6250/"}
