It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-16183 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Some pre-installed applications on Panasonic PC. 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-2018-16183/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16183/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-16183","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16183/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-16183","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-84mf-xh48-5c9h"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Panasonic PC applications","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges via unquoted search paths in pre-installed Panasonic PC applications.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"system_interface_device_0021","vendor":"panasonic"},{"product":"system_interface_device_0040","vendor":"panasonic"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-428","name":"Unquoted Search Path or Element"}],"description":"An unquoted search path vulnerability in some pre-installed applications on Panasonic PC run on Windows 7 (32bit), Windows 7 (64bit), Windows 8 (64bit), Windows 8.1 (64bit), Windows 10 (64bit) delivered in or later than October 2009 allow local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse executable file and execute arbitrary code with eleveted privileges.","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 Some pre-installed applications on Panasonic PC","id":"CVE-2018-16183","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in RICOH Interactive Whiteboard","id":"CVE-2018-16184"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in The installer of MARKET SPEED","id":"CVE-2018-16182"},"products":["Some pre-installed applications on Panasonic PC"],"published":"2019-01-09","related":[],"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":["Panasonic Corporation"]},"summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges via unquoted search paths in pre-installed Panasonic PC applications.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-16183/"}
