An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-20179 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-2018-20179/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20179/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-20179","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20179/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-20179","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2018-20179","DEBIAN-CVE-2018-20179","GHSA-4q64-7w7g-5x5w","UBUNTU-CVE-2018-20179"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"RDP client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An integer underflow in rdesktop leads to heap-based buffer overflow, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"integer_overflow"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"rdesktop","vendor":"rdesktop"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-191","name":"Integer Underflow (Wrap or Wraparound)"}],"description":"rdesktop versions up to and including v1.8.3 contain an Integer Underflow that leads to a Heap-Based Buffer Overflow in the function lspci_process() and results in memory corruption and probably even a remote code execution.","ecosystems":[],"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":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20179","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"integer_overflow","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20180"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20178"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-03-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1801","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-05-12"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1802","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-05-12"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-1803","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-05-12"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in RDesktop","id":"CVE-2019-15682","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-10-30"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20174","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-15"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20176","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-03-15"}],"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 integer underflow in rdesktop leads to heap-based buffer overflow, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20179/"}
