It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-14899 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Apple Ipados. 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-2019-14899/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-14899/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-14899","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-14899/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-14899","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rwr5-xr2c-7wc8","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2019-14899","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2019-14899","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-14899"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_modify","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OS VPN stack","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Adjacent attackers can hijack active VPN connections by injecting data into the TCP stream, affecting major operating systems.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"ipados","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"iphone_os","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"mac_os_x","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"macos","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"tvos","vendor":"apple"},{"product":"freebsd","vendor":"freebsd"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"},{"product":"openbsd","vendor":"openbsd"}],"cvss":{"score":7.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-300","name":"Channel Accessible by Non-Endpoint"}],"description":"A vulnerability was discovered in Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, MacOS, iOS, and Android that allows a malicious access point, or an adjacent user, to determine if a connected user is using a VPN, make positive inferences about the websites they are visiting, and determine the correct sequence and acknowledgement numbers in use, allowing the bad actor to inject data into the TCP stream.
