Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-2473 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform Server. 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-2018-2473/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-2473/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-2473","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-2473/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-2473","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5j3r-2r5c-vf28"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"SAP BusinessObjects BI","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in SAP BusinessObjects by crashing or flooding the Web Intelligence Richclient gateway.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"sap","cpe":[{"product":"businessobjects_business_intelligence","vendor":"sap"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform Server, versions 4.1 and 4.2, when using Web Intelligence Richclient 3 tiers mode gateway allows an attacker to prevent legitimate users from accessing a service, either by crashing or flooding the service.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform Server","id":"CVE-2018-2473","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in SAP Fiori 1.0 for SAP ERP HCM (Approve Leave Request, version 2)","id":"CVE-2018-2474"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform","id":"CVE-2018-2472"},"products":["SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform Server"],"published":"2018-11-13","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Information Disclosure vulnerability in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Promotion Management)","id":"CVE-2023-40622","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-12"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Deserialization in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Central Management Console and BI Launchpad)","id":"CVE-2022-41203","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Information Disclosure vulnerability in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (Promotion Management )","id":"CVE-2023-28765","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-04-11"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Server-side request forgery in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform","id":"CVE-2018-2445","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-08-14"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Information Disclosure in SAP BusinessObjects Intelligence Platform","id":"CVE-2023-28762","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence","id":"CVE-2018-2442","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-08-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Suite","id":"CVE-2018-2427","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-10"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["SAP"]},"summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service in SAP BusinessObjects by crashing or flooding the Web Intelligence Richclient gateway.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-2473/"}
