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-2019-8997/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8997/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-8997","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8997/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-8997","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f476-4rjp-2jx3"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"blackberry","cpe":[{"product":"athoc","vendor":"blackberry"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-611","name":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference"}],"description":"An XML External Entity Injection (XXE) vulnerability in the Management System (console) of BlackBerry AtHoc versions earlier than 7.6 HF-567 could allow an attacker to potentially read arbitrary local files from the application server or make requests on the network by entering maliciously crafted XML in an existing field.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2019-04-18","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":2,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2019-04-18T01:09:02Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/nxkennedy/CVE-2019-8997","stars":2,"title":"An XML External Entity Injection (XXE) vulnerability in the Management System (console) of BlackBerry AtHoc versions earlier than 7.6 HF-567 could allow an attacker to potentially read arbitrary local files from the application server or make requests on the network by entering maliciously crafted XML in an existing field."}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"An XML External Entity Injection (XXE) vulnerability in the Management System (console) of BlackBerry AtHoc versions earlier than 7.6 HF-567","id":"CVE-2019-8997","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in QNX Software Development Platform (QNX SDP)","id":"CVE-2019-8998"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-8996"},"products":["BlackBerry AtHoc"],"published":"2019-03-21","related":[{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"SQL injection in AtHoc","id":"CVE-2023-21521","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-12"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in AtHoc","id":"CVE-2023-21522","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-12"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in AtHoc","id":"CVE-2023-21523","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-12"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"Information disclosure in AtHoc","id":"CVE-2023-21520","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-12"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Information disclosure in BlackBerry® AtHoc® (OnPrem)","id":"CVE-2025-12766","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-19"},{"cvss_score":4.6,"headline":"Vulnerability in Management Console Impacts BlackBerry AtHoc","id":"CVE-2024-51723","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-25"}],"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)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8997/"}
