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-2016-8203 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Brocade MLX running on NetIron OS All Brocade MLX Line Cards running NetIron OS 5.8.00 through 5.8.00e, 5.9.00 through 5.9.00bd, 6.0.00 and 6.0.00a images. 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-2016-8203/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8203/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-8203","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8203/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-8203","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p665-v3h7-mrpc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Brocade NetIron OS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service by sending crafted IPsec packets to Brocade MLX switches running NetIron OS.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"brocade","cpe":[{"product":"netiron_os","vendor":"brocade"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"A memory corruption in the IPsec code path of Brocade NetIron OS on Brocade MLXs 5.8.00 through 5.8.00e, 5.9.00 through 5.9.00bd, 6.0.00, and 6.0.00a images could allow attackers to cause a denial of service (line card reset) via certain constructed IPsec control packets.","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":"Memory corruption in Brocade MLX running on NetIron OS All Brocade MLX Line Cards running NetIron OS 5.8.00 through 5.8.00e, 5.9.00 through 5.9.00bd, 6.0.00 and 6.0.00a images","id":"CVE-2016-8203","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in Brocade Network Advisor versions released prior to and including 14.0.2","id":"CVE-2016-8204"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Fibre Channel SAN products running Brocade Fabric OS (FOS).","id":"CVE-2016-8202"},"products":["Brocade MLX running on NetIron OS All Brocade MLX Line Cards running NetIron OS 5.8.00 through 5.8.00e, 5.9.00 through 5.9.00bd, 6.0.00 and 6.0.00a images"],"published":"2016-10-31","related":[],"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":"Attackers can cause a denial of service by sending crafted IPsec packets to Brocade MLX switches running NetIron OS.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-8203/"}
