It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2018-11459 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2018-11459 is a high-severity vulnerability in Siemens AG SINUMERIK 808D V4.7, SINUMERIK 808D V4.8, SINUMERIK 828D V4.7, SINUMERIK 840D sl V4.7, SINUMERIK 840D sl V4.8, published on 12 Dec 2018. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-11459 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Siemens AG SINUMERIK 808D V4.7, SINUMERIK 808D V4.8, SINUMERIK 828D V4.7, SINUMERIK 840D sl V4.7, SINUMERIK 840D sl V4.8. 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-2018-11459/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-11459/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-11459","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-11459/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-11459","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x2jv-vf8g-79j6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Siemens CNC controller","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can modify a configuration file to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges on Siemens SINUMERIK CNC controllers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"siemens","cpe":[{"product":"sinumerik_808d_v4.7_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"sinumerik_808d_v4.8_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"sinumerik_828d_v4.7_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"sinumerik_840d_sl_v4.7_firmware","vendor":"siemens"},{"product":"sinumerik_840d_sl_v4.8_firmware","vendor":"siemens"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-693","name":"Protection Mechanism Failure"}],"description":"A vulnerability has been identified in SINUMERIK 808D V4.7 (All versions), SINUMERIK 808D V4.8 (All versions), SINUMERIK 828D V4.7 (All versions \u003c V4.7 SP6 HF1), SINUMERIK 840D sl V4.7 (All versions \u003c V4.7 SP6 HF5), SINUMERIK 840D sl V4.8 (All versions \u003c V4.8 SP3).

The security vulnerability could be exploited by an attacker with local access to the affected system. Successful exploitation requires user privileges but no user interaction. The vulnerability could allow an attacker to compromise confidentiality, integrity and availability of the system.
