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-2018-12016 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2018-12016/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12016/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-12016","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12016/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-12016","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2018-12016","GHSA-5fwp-wgrw-hj8x","UBUNTU-CVE-2018-12016"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GNOME Web browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can crash the GNOME Web browser by triggering specific window.open and document.write calls, requiring users to update the application.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"epiphany","vendor":"gnome"}],"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:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"libephymain.so in GNOME Web (aka Epiphany) through 3.28.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via certain window.open and document.write calls.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-12016","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Go Ethereum LES protocol implementation vulnerable to Denial of Service","id":"CVE-2018-12018"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-12015"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-06-07","related":[{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-11396","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000025","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-07-13"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5985","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-01-28"},{"cvss_score":5.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-3312","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-10-12"},{"cvss_score":5,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2005-0238","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2005-02-07"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can crash the GNOME Web browser by triggering specific window.open and document.write calls, requiring users to update the application.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12016/"}
