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-2018-18886 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-2018-18886/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-18886/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-18886","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-18886/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-18886","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-wf65-c7j4-mw32"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Helpy helpdesk","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can inject malicious scripts into Helpy ticket titles, potentially executing code in other users' browsers.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"helpy","vendor":"helpy.io"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Helpy v2.1.0 has Stored XSS via the Ticket title.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-18886","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-18887"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-18883"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-06-18","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20851","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-07-10"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2025-52184","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-08-26"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Helpy","id":"CVE-2023-0357","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-04"},{"cvss_score":5.1,"headline":"Helpy 2.8.0 - Stored XSS in post author display via PostsHelper","id":"CVE-2026-40229","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-29"},{"cvss_score":4.8,"headline":"Helpy 2.8.0 - Stored XSS in knowledgebase Doc body rendering","id":"CVE-2026-40230","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-29"}],"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":"An attacker can inject malicious scripts into Helpy ticket titles, potentially executing code in other users' browsers.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-18886/"}
