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-2018-16522 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-2018-16522/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16522/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-16522","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16522/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-16522","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5f6r-84gw-g44v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"iot_embedded","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"AWS FreeRTOS","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in AWS FreeRTOS devices by triggering an uninitialized pointer free in the socket option setting function.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"amazon_web_services_freertos","vendor":"amazon"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-824","name":"Access of Uninitialized Pointer"}],"description":"Amazon Web Services (AWS) FreeRTOS through 1.3.1 has an uninitialized pointer free in SOCKETS_SetSockOpt.","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":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16522","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16523"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"XML external entity in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16521"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-12-06","related":[{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16525","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-06"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16526","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-06"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16528","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-06"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16601","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-06"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-13120","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-07"},{"cvss_score":7.4,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-16523","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-06"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in AWS FreeRTOS devices by triggering an uninitialized pointer free in the socket option setting function.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16522/"}
