{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6830","details":"The \"process-execute\" and \"process-spawn\" procedures in CHICKEN Scheme used fixed-size buffers for holding the arguments and environment variables to use in its execve() call. This would allow user-supplied argument/environment variable lists to trigger a buffer overrun. This affects all releases of CHICKEN up to and including 4.11 (it will be fixed in 4.12 and 5.0, which are not yet released).","modified":"2026-09-01T16:04:12.763649114Z","published":"2017-01-10T15:59:00.457Z","upstream":["CVE-2016-6830"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2016-6830"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"chicken","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/chicken?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"4.12.0-0.2"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6830.json"}},{"package":{"name":"chicken","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/chicken?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"4.12.0-0.2"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6830.json"}},{"package":{"name":"chicken","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/chicken?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"4.12.0-0.2"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/osv-test-debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6830.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
