An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2018-1000053 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2018-1000053 is a high-severity vulnerability in Limesurvey Limesurvey, published on 9 Feb 2018. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-1000053 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Limesurvey Limesurvey. 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-2018-1000053/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1000053/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-1000053","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1000053/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-1000053","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2jr6-vjc2-jjr3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"LimeSurvey","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can trick LimeSurvey admins into deleting all themes via CSRF, rendering the website unusable.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"csrf"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"limesurvey","vendor":"limesurvey"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-352","name":"Cross-Site Request Forgery"}],"description":"LimeSurvey version 3.0.0-beta.3+17110 contains a Cross ite Request Forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in Theme Uninstallation that can result in CSRF causing LimeSurvey admins to delete all their themes, rendering the website unusable.
