An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2018-18988 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2018-18988 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in ICS-CERT LCDS Laquis SCADA, published on 1 Feb 2019. 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-2018-18988 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: ICS-CERT LCDS Laquis SCADA. 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-2018-18988/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-18988/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-18988","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-18988/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-18988","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x949-53c4-m56f"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_read","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SCADA system","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code, exfiltrate data, or crash the system by tricking users into opening a malicious report file in LCDS Laquis SCADA.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"icscert","cpe":[{"product":"laquis_scada","vendor":"lcds"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"},{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"LCDS Laquis SCADA prior to version 4.1.0.4150 allows execution of script code by opening a specially crafted report format file.
