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-2018-12175 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2018-12175 is a high-severity vulnerability in Intel(R) Distribution for Python 2018, published on 12 Sep 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-2018-12175 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Distribution for Python 2018. 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-2018-12175/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12175/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-12175","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12175/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-12175","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r5r7-m3gc-3qc5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Python distribution","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An unprivileged local user can escalate privileges due to insecure default directory permissions in Intel Distribution for Python.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[{"product":"distribution_for_python","vendor":"intel"}],"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-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"}],"description":"Default install directory permissions in Intel Distribution for Python (IDP) version 2018 may allow an unprivileged user to escalate privileges via local access.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Distribution for Python 2018","id":"CVE-2018-12175","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Code injection in Intel(R) NUC Kits and Intel(R) Compute Cards","id":"CVE-2018-12176"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Intel Parallel Studio XE 2018","id":"CVE-2018-12174"},"products":["Intel(R) Distribution for Python 2018"],"published":"2018-09-12","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Distribution for Python","id":"CVE-2022-28696","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-08-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Intel Distribution for Python","id":"CVE-2018-3650","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-08-01"},{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Distribution for Python programming language for Intel(R) oneAPI Toolkits","id":"CVE-2022-26032","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-02-16"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-17","vendors":["Intel Corporation"]},"summary":"An unprivileged local user can escalate privileges due to insecure default directory permissions in Intel Distribution for Python.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12175/"}
