An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-9717 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Libav Libav. 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-2019-9717/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9717/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-9717","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9717/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-9717","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g8wg-jvvh-f2j6","UBUNTU-CVE-2019-9717"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Libav multimedia library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause denial of service via CPU exhaustion using crafted Matroska files in Libav's subtitle decoder.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"libav","vendor":"libav"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-400","name":"Uncontrolled Resource Consumption"}],"description":"In Libav 12.3, a denial of service in the subtitle decoder allows attackers to hog the CPU via a crafted video file in Matroska format, because srt_to_ass in libavcodec/srtdec.c has a complex format argument to sscanf.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9717","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"libav:libav","products":["libav:libav"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9718"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9714"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-09-19","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Libav before 0.8.12 allow remote attackers to have unknown impact and vectors.","id":"CVE-2014-3984","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-06-06"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-9051","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-05-18"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4609","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9719","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-09-19"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-5766","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-18"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-5684","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-17129","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-04"}],"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":"Attackers can cause denial of service via CPU exhaustion using crafted Matroska files in Libav's subtitle decoder.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-9717/"}
