An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-0440 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco Data Center Network Manager. 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-2018-0440/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-0440/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-0440","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-0440/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-0440","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7m6x-r79m-jgqx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cisco Data Center Network Manager","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Authenticated administrators can execute arbitrary OS commands with root privileges via crafted HTTP requests in Cisco Data Center Network Manager.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"data_center_network_manager","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"},{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"A vulnerability in the web interface of Cisco Data Center Network Manager could allow an authenticated application administrator to execute commands on the underlying operating system with root-level privileges.
