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-2019-9705 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-2019-9705/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9705/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-9705","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9705/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-9705","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2019-9705","GHSA-3rh6-vqr9-vpx5","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-9705"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vixie Cron","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can cause denial of service via memory consumption by submitting large crontab files to Vixie Cron.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"cron","vendor":"cron_project"},{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"}],"description":"Vixie Cron before the 3.0pl1-133 Debian package allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a large crontab file because an unlimited number of lines is accepted.","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-2019-9705","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"debian:debian_linux","products":["debian:debian_linux","fedoraproject:fedora"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":5,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9706"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9704"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-03-12","related":[{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-9525","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-06-09"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9704","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-12"}],"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":"2024-08-04","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can cause denial of service via memory consumption by submitting large crontab files to Vixie Cron.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9705/"}
