It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-6488 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Gnu Glibc. 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-2019-6488/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-6488/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-6488","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-6488/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-6488","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2019-6488","GHSA-7x9c-h7v7-85mv","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-6488"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"GNU C Library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A flaw in glibc on x32 architecture causes segmentation faults during memory operations, leading to application crashes and denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"glibc","vendor":"gnu"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-404","name":"Improper Resource Shutdown or Release"}],"description":"The string component in the GNU C Library (aka glibc or libc6) through 2.28, when running on the x32 architecture, incorrectly attempts to use a 64-bit register for size_t in assembly codes, which can lead to a segmentation fault or possibly unspecified other impact, as demonstrated by a crash in __memmove_avx_unaligned_erms in sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memmove-vec-unaligned-erms.S during a memcpy.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-6488","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"gnu:glibc","products":["gnu:glibc"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-6489"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-6487"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-01-18","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"scanf %mc off-by-one heap buffer overflow","id":"CVE-2026-5450","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-20"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-25139","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-03"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0199","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in glibc","id":"CVE-2019-1010022","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-15"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-3590","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-18269","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-11236","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-18"}],"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":"2026-10-14","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A flaw in glibc on x32 architecture causes segmentation faults during memory operations, leading to application crashes and denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-6488/"}
