It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-0422 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Webex Meetings Online. 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-2018-0422/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-0422/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-0422","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-0422/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-0422","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9mx2-579m-fvfq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Webex Meetings","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can modify Webex client files to execute code with elevated privileges on multi-user systems.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"webex_business_suite_31","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"webex_business_suite_32","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"webex_business_suite_33","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"webex_meetings_online","vendor":"cisco"},{"product":"webex_meetings_server","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the folder permissions of Cisco Webex Meetings client for Windows could allow an authenticated, local attacker to modify locally stored files and execute code on a targeted device with the privilege level of the user. The vulnerability is due to folder permissions that grant a user the permission to read, write, and execute files in the Webex folders. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to write malicious files to the Webex client directory, affecting all other users of the targeted device. A successful exploit could allow a user to execute commands with elevated privileges. Attacks on single-user systems are less likely to occur, as the attack must be carried out by the user on the user's own system. Multiuser systems have a higher risk of exploitation because folder permissions have an impact on all users of the device. For an attacker to exploit this vulnerability successfully, a second user must execute the locally installed malicious file to allow remote code execution to occur.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-0422","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cisco:webex_meetings_online","products":["cisco:webex_meetings_online","cisco:webex_meetings_server"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cisco RV110W, RV130W, and RV215W Routers Management Interface Buffer Overflow Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-0423"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cisco Prime Access Registrar Denial of Service Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-0421"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-10-05","related":[{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Code injection in Cisco WebEx Advanced Recording Format file players","id":"CVE-2018-0264","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-02"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Code injection in Cisco WebEx Clients","id":"CVE-2018-0112","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-19"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Cisco Webex Network Recording Player and Cisco Webex Player Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2018-15409","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-10-05"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Cisco Webex Network Recording Player and Cisco Webex Player Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2018-15410","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-10-05"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Cisco Webex Network Recording Player and Cisco Webex Player Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2018-15418","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-10-05"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cisco Webex Centers Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-15436","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-10-05"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-26","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can modify Webex client files to execute code with elevated privileges on multi-user systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-0422/"}
