Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-10908 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Redhat Virtualization. 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-2018-10908/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-10908/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-10908","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-10908/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-10908","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c34h-7mjf-54vf","RHEA-2018:2624"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Virtualization management","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service by uploading a crafted image that exhausts host resources via qemu-img, affecting virtualization hosts.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"vdsm","vendor":"ovirt"},{"product":"virtualization","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"},{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"It was found that vdsm before version 4.20.37 invokes qemu-img on untrusted inputs without limiting resources.
