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-2017-18594 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-2017-18594/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-18594/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-18594","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-18594/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-18594","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2017-18594","DEBIAN-CVE-2017-18594","GHSA-mh4c-hqr8-mc3f","MGASA-2020-0216","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-18594","openSUSE-SU-2024:11750-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Nmap network scanner","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A double free vulnerability in Nmap's SSH brute-force scripts allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted input.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"nmap","vendor":"nmap"}],"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-415","name":"Double Free"}],"description":"nse_libssh2.cc in Nmap 7.70 is subject to a denial of service condition due to a double free when an SSH connection fails, as demonstrated by a leading \\n character to ssh-brute.nse or ssh-auth-methods.nse.","ecosystems":["openSUSE:Tumbleweed"],"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-2017-18594","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2017"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18595"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Tumbleweed","fixed":["7.92-4.1"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"nmap","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/nmap\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Tumbleweed","source":"openSUSE-SU-2024:11750-1"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18593"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-08-28","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15173","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-08-08"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Nmap - Integer Underflow in IPv6 Extension Header Parsing","id":"CVE-2026-58058","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-28"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-4885","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-10-26"},{"cvss_score":5.7,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-1000161","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-18"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"openSUSE"},{"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 double free vulnerability in Nmap's SSH brute-force scripts allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted input.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-18594/"}
