Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-6901 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-2016-6901/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6901/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-6901","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6901/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-6901","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rfhj-2h7w-cr8x"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Huawei AR router","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated users can cause a denial of service on Huawei AR routers via format string specifiers in partial commands.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ar_firmware","vendor":"huawei"},{"product":"netengine_16ex_firmware","vendor":"huawei"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Format string vulnerability in Huawei AR100, AR120, AR150, AR200, AR500, AR550, AR1200, AR2200, AR2500, AR3200, and AR3600 routers with software before V200R007C00SPC900 and NetEngine 16EX routers with software before V200R007C00SPC900 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service via format string specifiers in vectors involving partial commands.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6901","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6902"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6900"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-09-26","related":[{"cvss_score":4.9,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8085","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-10-03"},{"cvss_score":4.9,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8086","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-10-03"},{"cvss_score":4,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-8228","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-11-24"}],"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 authenticated users can cause a denial of service on Huawei AR routers via format string specifiers in partial commands.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6901/"}
