An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2018-17914 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2018-17914 is a critical authentication bypass vulnerability in unknown InduSoft Web Studio, and InTouch Edge HMI (formerly InTouch Machine Edition), published on 2 Nov 2018. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-17914 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: unknown InduSoft Web Studio, and InTouch Edge HMI (formerly InTouch Machine Edition). 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-2018-17914/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-17914/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-17914","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-17914/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-17914","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xjh8-jwcf-pmgc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SCADA HMI software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Unauthenticated attackers can remotely execute arbitrary code on InduSoft Web Studio and InTouch Edge HMI systems, requiring immediate upgrades.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"icscert","cpe":[{"product":"edge","vendor":"aveva"},{"product":"indusoft_web_studio","vendor":"aveva"},{"product":"intouch_machine_edition_2014","vendor":"aveva"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-258","name":"Empty Password in Configuration File"}],"description":"InduSoft Web Studio versions prior to 8.1 SP2, and InTouch Edge HMI (formerly InTouch Machine Edition) versions prior to 2017 SP2.
