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-2024-5198 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: OpenVPN-GUI. 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-2024-5198/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-5198/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-5198","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-5198/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-5198","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cp7w-whjm-pp36"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"OpenVPN Windows driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An unprivileged local attacker can cause a system halt in OpenVPN for Windows by sending invalid I/O control messages to the driver.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"OpenVPN","cpe":[{"product":"ovpn-dco-win","vendor":"openvpn"}],"cvss":{"score":3.3,"severity":"low","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"OpenVPN ovpn-dco for Windows version 1.1.1 allows an unprivileged local attacker to send I/O control messages with invalid data to the driver resulting in a NULL pointer dereference leading to a system halt.","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":"Null dereference in OpenVPN-GUI","id":"CVE-2024-5198","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Spotify Play Button \u003c= 1.0 - Contributor+ Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-5199"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Integer overflow in libvpx","id":"CVE-2024-5197"},"products":["OpenVPN-GUI","ovpn-dco"],"published":"2025-01-15","related":[{"cvss_score":5.6,"headline":"Memory corruption in ovpn-dco-win","id":"CVE-2026-11604","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-10"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in ovpn-dco-win","id":"CVE-2025-50054","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-20"}],"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":"2025-01-15","vendors":["OpenVPN"]},"summary":"An unprivileged local attacker can cause a system halt in OpenVPN for Windows by sending invalid I/O control messages to the driver.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-5198/"}
