It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2018-25217 exists.\n\nAffected product: Rttsoftware PDF Explorer. 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-2018-25217/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-25217/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-25217","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-25217/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-25217","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7v3h-hrvp-35cg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PDF Explorer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can execute arbitrary code via a structured exception handler overflow in the Label field of the Custom fields settings dialog.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[{"product":"pdf_explorer","vendor":"rttsoftware"}],"cvss":{"score":8.6,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"PDF Explorer 1.5.66.2 contains a structured exception handler (SEH) overflow vulnerability that allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by overwriting SEH records with malicious data.
