An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-1853 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Spectrum Protect. 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-2018-1853/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1853/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-1853","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1853/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-1853","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7r69-h68x-ph6g"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["account_takeover","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Spectrum Protect","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can hijack user clicks via malicious sites, potentially leading to account takeover or further attacks against IBM Spectrum Protect users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"spectrum_protect_backup-archive_client","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/C:L/AC:L/I:L/A:N/PR:N/AV:N/UI:R/S:C/RL:O/E:U/RC:C","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1021","name":"Improper Restriction of Rendered UI Layers or Frames"}],"description":"IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (IBM Spectrum Protect 7.1 and 8.1) could allow a remote attacker to hijack the clicking action of the victim.
