It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-4863 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-2018-4863/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-4863/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-4863","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-4863/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-4863","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2vm5-6gc7-pcvr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Endpoint Protection","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can bypass tamper protection in Sophos Endpoint Protection by deleting a specific registry key, disabling security defenses.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"endpoint_protection","vendor":"sophos"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-254","name":null}],"description":"Sophos Endpoint Protection 10.7 allows local users to bypass an intended tamper protection mechanism by deleting the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\services\\Sophos Endpoint Defense\\ registry key.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2018-04-06","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2018-04-06","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"44410","stars":null,"title":"Sophos Endpoint Protection 10.7 - Tamper-Protection Bypass"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-4863","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-4868"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-4862"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-04-05","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-9233","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-05"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can bypass tamper protection in Sophos Endpoint Protection by deleting a specific registry key, disabling security defenses.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-4863/"}
