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-2017-9844 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Sap Netweaver. 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-2017-9844/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9844/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-9844","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-9844/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-9844","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8xqh-j9rj-w265"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SAP NetWeaver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service or execute arbitrary code via crafted serialized Java objects in SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"netweaver","vendor":"sap"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"SAP NetWeaver 7400.12.21.30308 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized Java object in a request to metadatauploader, aka SAP Security Note 2399804.
