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-2019-9499 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Debian Debian Linux. 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-2019-9499/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9499/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-9499","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9499/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-9499","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2019-9499","DEBIAN-CVE-2019-9499","GHSA-qppx-fffq-j22m","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-9499"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Wi-Fi supplicant","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass authentication and control data connections in wpa_supplicant if EAP-PWD validation is missing due to library issues.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"certcc","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"freebsd","vendor":"freebsd"},{"product":"backports_sle","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"leap","vendor":"opensuse"},{"product":"radius_server","vendor":"synology"},{"product":"router_manager","vendor":"synology"},{"product":"hostapd","vendor":"w1.fi"},{"product":"wpa_supplicant","vendor":"w1.fi"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"},{"id":"CWE-346","name":"Origin Validation Error"}],"description":"The implementations of EAP-PWD in wpa_supplicant EAP Peer, when built against a crypto library missing explicit validation on imported elements, do not validate the scalar and element values in EAP-pwd-Commit.
