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-2017-7679 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apache Http 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-2017-7679/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7679/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-7679","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7679/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-7679","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2017-7679","CLEANSTART-2026-GY12147","DEBIAN-CVE-2017-7679","GHSA-v946-67fg-g8xg","UBUNTU-CVE-2017-7679"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache HTTP Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A buffer over-read in Apache mod_mime allows attackers to cause a crash or leak memory contents via a malicious Content-Type header.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"http_server","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"},{"id":"CWE-126","name":"Buffer Over-read"}],"description":"In Apache httpd 2.2.x before 2.2.33 and 2.4.x before 2.4.26, mod_mime can read one byte past the end of a buffer when sending a malicious Content-Type response header.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2025-10-21","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":1,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2025-10-21T17:38:17Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Al-Lord0x/CVE-2017-7679","stars":1,"title":"CVE-2017-7679 POC SCRIPT BY LORDWARE...."}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Memory corruption in Apache HTTP Server","id":"CVE-2017-7679","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"apache:http_server","products":["apache:http_server"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":40,"next":{"headline":"Apache OpenMeetings allows flash content to be loaded from untrusted domains","id":"CVE-2017-7680"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Moderate severity vulnerability that affects org.apache.spark:spark-core_2.10 and org.apache.spark:spark-core_2.11","id":"CVE-2017-7678"},"products":["Apache HTTP Server"],"published":"2017-06-20","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Apache HTTP Server Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2021-42013","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-10-07"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Apache HTTP Server Improper Escaping of Output","id":"CVE-2024-38475","kev_date_added":"2025-05-01","published":"2024-07-01"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Apache HTTP Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF)","id":"CVE-2021-40438","kev_date_added":"2021-12-01","published":"2021-09-16"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Apache HTTP Server Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2019-0211","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2019-04-08"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Apache HTTP Server Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2021-41773","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-10-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0425","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-03-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-2700","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-09-06"}],"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)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["Apache Software Foundation"]},"summary":"A buffer over-read in Apache mod_mime allows attackers to cause a crash or leak memory contents via a malicious Content-Type header.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-7679/"}
