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-2017-8452 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Elastic Kibana. 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-2017-8452/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8452/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-8452","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8452/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-8452","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p36j-6ff2-h5mm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Kibana visualization tool","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause Kibana to crash by exhausting file descriptors in SSL-enabled configurations, requiring an upgrade to fix.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"elastic","cpe":[{"product":"kibana","vendor":"elastic"}],"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-769","name":"DEPRECATED: Uncontrolled File Descriptor Consumption"},{"id":"CWE-775","name":"Missing Release of File Descriptor or Handle after Effective Lifetime"}],"description":"Kibana versions prior to 5.2.1 configured for SSL client access, file descriptors will fail to be cleaned up after certain requests and will accumulate over time until the process crashes.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Denial of service in Kibana","id":"CVE-2017-8452","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"elastic:kibana","products":["elastic:kibana"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8453"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Open redirect in Elastic X-Pack Security","id":"CVE-2017-8451"},"products":["Kibana"],"published":"2017-06-16","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Kibana Arbitrary Code Execution","id":"CVE-2019-7609","kev_date_added":"2022-01-10","published":"2019-03-25"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Kibana arbitrary code execution via prototype pollution","id":"CVE-2025-25015","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-05"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Deserialization in Kibana","id":"CVE-2024-37288","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-09"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Code injection in Kibana","id":"CVE-2023-31415","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-04"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information disclosure in Kibana","id":"CVE-2018-17245","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in Kibana","id":"CVE-2018-17246","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-20"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Kibana arbitrary code execution via prototype pollution","id":"CVE-2025-25014","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-05-06"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["Elastic"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause Kibana to crash by exhausting file descriptors in SSL-enabled configurations, requiring an upgrade to fix.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-8452/"}
