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-2018-15452 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cisco AMP for Endpoints. 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-2018-15452/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15452/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-15452","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15452/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-15452","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j3cp-9wr8-vpp5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Endpoint Protection Software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local attacker with admin privileges can disable Cisco AMP scanning services via DLL preloading, bypassing endpoint protection.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisco","cpe":[{"product":"advanced_malware_protection_for_endpoints","vendor":"cisco"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"A vulnerability in the DLL loading component of Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) for Endpoints on Windows could allow an authenticated, local attacker to disable system scanning services or take other actions to prevent detection of unauthorized intrusions. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker would need to have administrative credentials on the Windows system. The vulnerability is due to the improper validation of resources loaded by a system process at run time. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by crafting a malicious DLL file and placing it in a specific location on the targeted system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to disable the targeted system's scanning services and ultimately prevent the system from being protected from further intrusion. There are no workarounds that address this vulnerability.","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":"Cisco Advanced Malware Protection for Endpoints on Windows DLL Preloading Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-15452","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cisco Email Security Appliance Memory Corruption Denial of Service Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-15453"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cisco Prime Service Catalog Cross-Site Scripting Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-15451"},"products":["Cisco AMP for Endpoints"],"published":"2018-11-13","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Cisco Advanced Malware Protection for Endpoints and Immunet for Windows DLL Hijacking Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2021-1280","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-01-20"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Path traversal in Cisco AMP for Endpoints","id":"CVE-2021-1386","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-08"},{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"Cisco Advanced Malware Protection for Endpoints Windows Command Injection Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2019-1932","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-06"},{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"Path traversal in Cisco Immunet Antimalware Installer","id":"CVE-2017-12312","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-16"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cisco AMP for Endpoints Mac Connector Software File Scan Denial of Service Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-3314","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-22"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Denial of service in Cisco AMP for Endpoints Mac Connector unknown","id":"CVE-2018-0397","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-08-01"},{"cvss_score":5.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Cisco AMP for Endpoints","id":"CVE-2018-0237","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-19"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-26","vendors":["Cisco"]},"summary":"An authenticated local attacker with admin privileges can disable Cisco AMP scanning services via DLL preloading, bypassing endpoint protection.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15452/"}
