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-2016-9499 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Accellion FTP Server. 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-2016-9499/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9499/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-9499","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9499/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-9499","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-64mw-c7hp-gmxw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Accellion FTP Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can enumerate valid user accounts by observing server responses to invalid username attempts, facilitating targeted attacks.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"certcc","cpe":[{"product":"ftp_server","vendor":"accellion"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"},{"id":"CWE-204","name":"Observable Response Discrepancy"}],"description":"Accellion FTP server prior to version FTA_9_12_220 only returns the username in the server response if the username is invalid.
