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-2018-15749 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-2018-15749/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15749/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-15749","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15749/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-15749","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c49m-xjh6-2h4v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Pulse Secure Desktop","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A format string vulnerability in Pulse Secure Desktop for macOS allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"pulse_secure_desktop_client","vendor":"pulsesecure"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-134","name":"Use of Externally-Controlled Format String"}],"description":"The Pulse Secure Desktop (macOS) 5.3RX before 5.3R5 and 9.0R1 has a Format String 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":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15749","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"SaltStack Salt Directory Traversal vulnerability in salt-api","id":"CVE-2018-15750"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15748"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-09-06","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Pulse Secure Desktop Cient","id":"CVE-2020-8239","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-28"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Path traversal in Pulse Secure Desktop Client","id":"CVE-2020-8254","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-28"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Pulse Secure Desktop Client","id":"CVE-2020-8240","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-28"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Pulse Secure Desktop Client","id":"CVE-2020-8248","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-28"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Pulse Secure Desktop Client","id":"CVE-2020-8249","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-28"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Pulse Secure Desktop Client","id":"CVE-2020-8250","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-28"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-15865","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-09-06"}],"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":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"A format string vulnerability in Pulse Secure Desktop for macOS allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-15749/"}
