Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-12457 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- express-cart (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 1.1.6\n- express-cart (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 1.1.6\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-2018-12457/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12457/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-12457","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12457/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-12457","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hr89-w7p6-pjmq"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"expressCart e-commerce","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can create an admin user by manipulating the Referer header, leading to full administrative control of the expressCart application.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"expresscart","vendor":"expresscart_project"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"expressCart before 1.1.6 allows remote attackers to create an admin user via a /admin/setup Referer header.","ecosystems":["npm"],"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":"express-cart allows any user to create an admin user","id":"CVE-2018-12457","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2018"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-12458"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["1.1.6"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"express-cart","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-hr89-w7p6-pjmq"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["1.1.6"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"express-cart","purl":"pkg:npm/express-cart","source":"GHSA-hr89-w7p6-pjmq"}],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-12456"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-06-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can create an admin user by manipulating the Referer header, leading to full administrative control of the expressCart application.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-12457/"}
