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-2016-9844 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-2016-9844/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9844/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-9844","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9844/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-9844","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2016-9844","AZL-35338","AZL-6940","DEBIAN-CVE-2016-9844","GHSA-r3pw-cm89-hq37","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-9844"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Info-Zip UnZip","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via a buffer overflow in Info-Zip UnZip by using a large compression method value.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"unzip","vendor":"unzip_project"}],"cvss":{"score":4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Buffer overflow in the zi_short function in zipinfo.c in Info-Zip UnZip 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large compression method value in the central directory file header.","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 n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9844","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9845"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-9843"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-01-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Path traversal in github.com/yi-ge/unzip","id":"CVE-2020-36561","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-27"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-1000035","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-02-09"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-18384","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-10-16"},{"cvss_score":4,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-9913","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-01-18"}],"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 attackers can cause a denial of service via a buffer overflow in Info-Zip UnZip by using a large compression method value.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-9844/"}
