Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-3823 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Elasticsearch X-Pack Machine Learning. 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-2018-3823/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-3823/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-3823","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-3823/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-3823","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4q33-p7w3-3rq8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Elasticsearch X-Pack ML","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers with ML management permissions can inject malicious scripts into job configurations to steal data or perform actions on behalf of other users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"elastic","cpe":[{"product":"elasticsearch_x-pack","vendor":"elastic"},{"product":"kibana_x-pack","vendor":"elastic"},{"product":"logstash_x-pack","vendor":"elastic"}],"cvss":{"score":5.4,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"X-Pack Machine Learning versions before 6.2.4 and 5.6.9 had a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
