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-2024-40680 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM MQ. 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-2024-40680/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40680/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-40680","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40680/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-40680","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-24xq-67qf-j3xr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM MQ","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local user can cause a denial of service in IBM MQ by triggering a segmentation fault through improper memory allocation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"mq_operator","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","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"},{"id":"CWE-789","name":"Memory Allocation with Excessive Size Value"}],"description":"IBM MQ 9.3 CD and 9.4 LTS/CD could allow a local user to cause a denial of service due to improper memory allocation causing a segmentation fault.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"IBM MQ denial of service","id":"CVE-2024-40680","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"IBM MQ security bypass","id":"CVE-2024-40681"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"IBM Db2 information disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-40679"},"products":["MQ"],"published":"2024-09-07","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"IBM MQ Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2026-10572","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-19"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"IBM MQ Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2026-10574","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-19"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"IBM MQ Race Condition","id":"CVE-2026-10743","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-19"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"IBM MQ Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2026-12665","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-19"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"IBM MQ Container authentication bypass","id":"CVE-2024-39742","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-07-08"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"IBM MQ Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2026-12148","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-19"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"IBM MQ security bypass","id":"CVE-2024-40681","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-09-07"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-10-31","vendors":["IBM"]},"summary":"A local user can cause a denial of service in IBM MQ by triggering a segmentation fault through improper memory allocation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40680/"}
