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-2018-1992 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: IBM Power 9 Systems. 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-2018-1992/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1992/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-1992","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-1992/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-1992","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-phhh-x2xq-mff8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IBM Power 9 firmware","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A buffer overflow in the IBM Power 9 bootloader allows attackers to bypass secure boot and execute arbitrary code by replacing the boot firmware image.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ibm","cpe":[{"product":"power_system_ac922_\\(8335-gtg\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_ac922_\\(8335-gth\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_ac922_\\(8335-gtx\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_h922_\\(9223-22h\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_h924_\\(9223-42h\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_l922_\\(9008-22l\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_lc921_\\(9006-12p\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_lc922_\\(9006-22p\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_s914_\\(9009-41a\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_s922_\\(9009-22a\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"},{"product":"power_system_s924_\\(9009-42a\\)_firmware","vendor":"ibm"}],"cvss":{"score":6.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/PR:H/AV:L/S:U/I:H/UI:N/AC:H/A:H/C:H/RC:C/E:U/RL:O","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"The IBM Power 9 OP910, OP920, and FW910 boot firmware's bootloader is responsible for loading and validating the initial boot firmware image that drives the rest of the system's hardware initialization.
