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-2018-20353 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cesanta Mongoose. 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-2018-20353/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20353/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-20353","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20353/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-20353","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6vw4-wcwf-h6g7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mongoose embedded web server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A use-after-free in the Mongoose embedded web server library allows attackers to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"mongoose","vendor":"cesanta"}],"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-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"An invalid read of 8 bytes due to a use-after-free vulnerability during a \"NULL test\" in the mg_http_get_proto_data function in mongoose.c in Cesanta Mongoose Embedded Web Server Library 6.13 and earlier allows a denial of service (application crash) or 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":false,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20353","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"cesanta:mongoose","products":["cesanta:mongoose"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20354"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20352"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-06-10","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Arbitrary File Write","id":"CVE-2022-25299","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-25756","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-18"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-19307","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-12951","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20354","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-10"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20355","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-10"}],"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":"A use-after-free in the Mongoose embedded web server library allows attackers to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-20353/"}
