An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-17287 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-2018-17287/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-17287/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-17287","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-17287/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-17287","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pjpc-vgm9-wp5g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Kofax Front Office Server","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can exfiltrate cleartext passwords from the Kofax Front Office Server Administration Console by exploiting the back-end download feature.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"front_office_server","vendor":"kofax"}],"cvss":{"score":4.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-345","name":"Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity"},{"id":"CWE-311","name":"Missing Encryption of Sensitive Data"}],"description":"In Kofax Front Office Server Administration Console 4.1.1.11.0.5212, some fields, such as passwords, are obfuscated in the front-end, but the cleartext value can be exfiltrated by using the back-end \"download\" feature, as demonstrated by an mfp.password downloadsettingvalue operation.","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":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-17287","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-17288"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-17283"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-04-18","related":[{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"XML external entity in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-17289","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-18"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-17288","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-18"}],"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":"Attackers can exfiltrate cleartext passwords from the Kofax Front Office Server Administration Console by exploiting the back-end download feature.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-17287/"}
