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-2016-6293 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-2016-6293/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6293/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-6293","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6293/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-6293","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2016-6293","CLEANSTART-2026-HM87763","DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6293","DLA-615-1","GHSA-jw29-rmwq-xp9m","MGASA-2016-0314","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-6293"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ICU C/C++ library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via out-of-bounds read in ICU library when processing long HTTP Accept-Language headers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"international_components_for_unicode","vendor":"icu-project"}],"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-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The uloc_acceptLanguageFromHTTP function in common/uloc.cpp in International Components for Unicode (ICU) through 57.1 for C/C++ does not ensure that there is a '\\0' character at the end of a certain temporary array, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a call with a long httpAcceptLanguage argument.","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-2016-6293","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6294"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6292"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-07-25","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-18928","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-11-04"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-17484","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-14952","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-10-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-9911","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-01-04"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-7415","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-09-17"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4771","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-01-28"}],"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 out-of-bounds read in ICU library when processing long HTTP Accept-Language headers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6293/"}
