An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-9435 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Opensuse Leap. 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-2016-9435/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9435/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-9435","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9435/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-9435","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-9435","GHSA-5j5f-5jrw-f736","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-9435"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"w3m text browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash the w3m text browser by providing a crafted HTML file with specific tags due to improper value initialization.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"leap","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"leap","vendor":"opensuse_project"},{"product":"w3m","vendor":"tats"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"The HTMLtagproc1 function in file.c in w3m before 0.5.3+git20161009 does not properly initialize values, which allows remote attackers to crash the application via a crafted html file, related to \u003cdd\u003e tags.","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":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9435","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"opensuse:leap","products":["opensuse:leap"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9436"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9434"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-01-20","related":[{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Oracle Java SE Integrity Check","id":"CVE-2015-4902","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2015-10-21"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"package builds could use directory traversal to write outside of target area","id":"CVE-2017-14804","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-01"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Teeworlds before 0.7.4 has an integer overflow when computing a tilemap size.","id":"CVE-2019-20787","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-22"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-8341","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-02-15"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-6438","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-01-31"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18215","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6542","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-27"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-14","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can crash the w3m text browser by providing a crafted HTML file with specific tags due to improper value initialization.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9435/"}
