It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-4868 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Exiv2 Exiv2. 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-2018-4868/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-4868/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-4868","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-4868/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-4868","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8x93-7gj9-73c3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Exiv2 image library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via excessive memory allocation in Exiv2 by providing a crafted file.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"exiv2","vendor":"exiv2"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"}],"description":"The Exiv2::Jp2Image::readMetadata function in jp2image.cpp in Exiv2 0.26 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (excessive memory allocation) via a crafted file.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-4868","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"exiv2:exiv2","products":["exiv2:exiv2"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Adobe Flash Player before 28.0.0.137","id":"CVE-2018-4871"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-4863"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-01-03","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Out-of-bounds write in exiv2","id":"CVE-2023-44398","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-06"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9143","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-02-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-9144","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-02-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-14046","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-13"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-12955","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-08-18"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-14338","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-17"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-9305","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-04-04"}],"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":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service via excessive memory allocation in Exiv2 by providing a crafted file.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-4868/"}
