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-2018-12408 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks. 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-2018-12408/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12408/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-12408","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12408/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-12408","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x752-5hrq-8pgc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"TIBCO BusinessWorks","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can exploit XML External Entity vulnerabilities in TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks to disclose the contents of files accessible to the engine.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"xxe"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"tibco","cpe":[{"product":"activematrix_businessworks","vendor":"tibco"},{"product":"activematrix_businessworks_distribution_for_tibco_silver_fabric","vendor":"tibco"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-611","name":"Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference"}],"description":"The BusinessWorks engine component of TIBCO Software Inc.'s TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks, TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks for z/Linux, and TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks Distribution for TIBCO Silver Fabric contains a vulnerability that may allow XML eXternal Entity (XXE) attacks via incoming network messages, and may disclose the contents of files accessible to a running BusinessWorks engine Affected releases are TIBCO Software Inc.
