An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-8249 exists.\n\nAffected product: Mintplexlabs Anythingllm. 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-2024-8249/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8249/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-8249","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8249/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-8249","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h5jv-6xg2-9cv8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"AnythingLLM chat API","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can crash the AnythingLLM server by sending a malformed JSON payload to the unauthenticated embeddable chat API endpoint.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"@huntr_ai","cpe":[{"product":"anythingllm","vendor":"mintplexlabs"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-248","name":"Uncaught Exception"}],"description":"mintplex-labs/anything-llm version git 6dc3642 contains an unauthenticated Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability in the API for the embeddable chat functionality.
