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-2013-6040 exists.\n\nAffected product: MW6 Aztec ActiveX Controls. 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-2013-6040/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6040/index.md)","id":"CVE-2013-6040","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2013-6040/index.md","name":"CVE-2013-6040","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6mmp-f4p3-97mr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ActiveX barcode controls","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code by tricking users into viewing a crafted HTML document using vulnerable MW6 ActiveX controls.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"certcc","cpe":[{"product":"aztec_activex_control","vendor":"mw6tech"},{"product":"datamatrix_activex_control","vendor":"mw6tech"},{"product":"maxicode_activex_control","vendor":"mw6tech"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"MW6 Aztec, DataMatrix, and MaxiCode ActiveX controls before version 4.0 vulnerable to arbitrary code via a crafted HTML document.
