How to Fix CVE-2009-1824

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Software dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release: 

mvn dependency:tree

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Java application is affected by CVE-2009-1824, inspect your build dependencies using the Maven Dependency Plugin:

mvn dependency:tree

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Software in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than the patched release), your application is affected.

Note: The mvn dependency:tree command inspects the resolved dependency graph declared in your project's POM files; it does not perform automated security scanning or inspect runtime dynamic classpaths. Always verify runtime container classpaths and shaded JARs.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-20: Improper Input Validation, where the product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. In Software, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

The ps_drv.sys kernel driver in ArcaBit ArcaVir 2009 Antivirus Protection 9.4.3201.9 and earlier, ArcaVir 2009 Internet Security 9.4.3202.9 and earlier, ArcaVir 2009 System Protection 9.4.3203.9 and earlier, and ArcaBit 2009 Home Protection 9.4.3204.9 and earlier, allows local users to gain privileges via crafted METHOD_NEITHER IOCTL requests to \Device\ps_drv containing arbitrary kernel addresses, as demonstrated using the (1) 0x2A7B802B and possibly (2) 0x2A7B8004 and (3) 0x2A7B802F IOCTLs.
