An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2018-0891 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Edge. 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-2018-0891/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-0891/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-0891","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-0891/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-0891","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qpvj-752h-7r4r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft Edge/IE","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A scripting engine memory handling flaw in Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer allows attackers to disclose sensitive information.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"edge","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"internet_explorer","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-401","name":"Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime"}],"description":"ChakraCore, and Internet Explorer in Microsoft Windows 7 SP1, Windows Server 2008 and R2 SP1, Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1, Windows Server 2012 and R2, and Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge in Windows 10 Gold, 1511, 1607, 1703, 1709, and Windows Server 2016 allow information disclosure, due to how the scripting engine handles objects in memory, aka \"Scripting Engine Information Disclosure Vulnerability\".
