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-2016-7837 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: BlueZ. 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-2016-7837/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-7837/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-7837","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-7837/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-7837","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-7837","GHSA-rqrx-f2rh-m32q","MGASA-2017-0414","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-7837"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux Bluetooth stack","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in BlueZ userland utilities, affecting Linux systems using this Bluetooth stack.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"bluez","vendor":"bluez"}],"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-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Buffer overflow in BlueZ 5.41 and earlier allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code via the parse_line function used in some userland utilities.","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 BlueZ","id":"CVE-2016-7837","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in WinSparkle","id":"CVE-2016-7838"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SKYSEA Client View Improper Authentication","id":"CVE-2016-7836"},"products":["BlueZ"],"published":"2017-06-09","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-43400","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-04"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"BlueZ HID over GATT Profile Improper Access Control Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-8805","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-39176","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-02"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-39177","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-09-02"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in bluez","id":"CVE-2022-0204","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-8922","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-11-29"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-27153","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-15"}],"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":["BlueZ Project"]},"summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow in BlueZ userland utilities, affecting Linux systems using this Bluetooth stack.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-7837/"}
