An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-11196 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Mahara Mahara. 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-2018-11196/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-11196/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-11196","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-11196/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-11196","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-m3f2-w7gg-4r2w"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["other"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Mahara ePortfolio","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass ClamAV virus scanning on Leap2A archives to distribute malicious files to users via the Mahara ePortfolio platform.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mahara","vendor":"mahara"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"Mahara 17.04 before 17.04.8 and 17.10 before 17.10.5 and 18.04 before 18.04.1 can be used as medium to transmit viruses by placing infected files into a Leap2A archive and uploading that to Mahara.
