FAUCET Score

CVE-2008-5133 describes a vulnerability in ipnat within IP Filter in Sun Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris versions prior to snv_96. This flaw, present when NAT is configured on a DNS server, improperly alters the source port of packets destined for the DNS port, enabling remote attackers to bypass a protection mechanism against DNS cache poisoning (CVE-2008-1447) and spoof DNS responses. With a CVSS score of 5.8, this vulnerability has a network attack vector and medium attack complexity, potentially leading to partial integrity and availability impacts. The EPSS score is very low, indicating a minimal probability of exploitation. Currently, there is no evidence of active exploitation, and no public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB) is available. Community discussion and media coverage for this CVE are also absent, suggesting a lack of widespread attention or exploitation.
