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-2018-17956 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: SUSE yast2-samba-provision. 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-2018-17956/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-17956/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-17956","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-17956/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-17956","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6xxx-c2gc-j39m","SUSE-SU-2022:3199-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:11535-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SUSE YaST Samba tool","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can read Samba share passwords from the process list due to insecure command-line argument handling in the YaST provisioning tool.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microfocus","cpe":[{"product":"yast2-samba-provision","vendor":"opensuse"}],"cvss":{"score":3.3,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-200","name":"Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor"}],"description":"In yast2-samba-provision up to and including version 1.0.1 the password for samba shares was provided on the command line to tools used by yast2-samba-provision, allowing local attackers to read them in the process list","ecosystems":["SUSE:Linux Enterprise Module for Server Applications 15 SP4","openSUSE:Leap 15.4","openSUSE:Tumbleweed"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Password exposed in process listing","id":"CVE-2018-17956","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2018"},"n_packages":3,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"yast2-rmt leaks database passwords in process list","id":"CVE-2018-17957"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"SUSE:Linux Enterprise Module for Server Applications 15 SP4","fixed":["1.0.5-150400.9.3.3"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"yast2-samba-provision","purl":"pkg:rpm/suse/yast2-samba-provision\u0026distro=SUSE%20Linux%20Enterprise%20Module%20for%20Server%20Applications%2015%20SP4","source":"SUSE-SU-2022:3199-1"},{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Leap 15.4","fixed":["1.0.5-150400.9.3.3"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"yast2-samba-provision","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/yast2-samba-provision\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Leap%2015.4","source":"SUSE-SU-2022:3199-1"},{"ecosystem":"openSUSE:Tumbleweed","fixed":["1.0.5-1.2"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"yast2-samba-provision","purl":"pkg:rpm/opensuse/yast2-samba-provision\u0026distro=openSUSE%20Tumbleweed","source":"openSUSE-SU-2024:11535-1"}],"prev":{"headline":"Static tempfile name allows overwriting of arbitrary files","id":"CVE-2018-17955"},"products":["yast2-samba-provision"],"published":"2019-03-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"SUSE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"SUSE","prefix":"openSUSE"},{"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":"2024-09-17","vendors":["SUSE"]},"summary":"Local attackers can read Samba share passwords from the process list due to insecure command-line argument handling in the YaST provisioning tool.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-17956/"}
