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-2017-12961 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-2017-12961/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-12961/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-12961","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-12961/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-12961","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2017-12961","GHSA-67vh-4hv2-cmmr","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-12961"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GNU PSPP library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A remote attacker can cause a denial of service in GNU PSPP via an assertion abort in the libpspp library when parsing attributes.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"pspp","vendor":"gnu"}],"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-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"There is an assertion abort in the function parse_attributes() in data/sys-file-reader.c of the libpspp library in GNU PSPP before 1.0.1 that will lead to remote denial of service.","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":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12961","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12962"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12960"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2017-08-18","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20230","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-19"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12958","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12959","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12960","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-18"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10791","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-02"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-10792","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-02"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A remote attacker can cause a denial of service in GNU PSPP via an assertion abort in the libpspp library when parsing attributes.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-12961/"}
