Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-16252 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Insteon Hub Firmware. 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-2017-16252/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-16252/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-16252","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-16252/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-16252","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pqww-vj7p-6q2p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Insteon Hub","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow in the Insteon Hub firmware via crafted PubNub commands, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"talos","cpe":[{"product":"hub_firmware","vendor":"insteon"}],"cvss":{"score":8.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"Specially crafted commands sent through the PubNub service in Insteon Hub 2245-222 with firmware version 1012 can cause a stack-based buffer overflow overwriting arbitrary data.
