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-2018-5448 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Medtronic 2090 CareLink Programmer. 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-2018-5448/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5448/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-5448","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5448/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-5448","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h435-fgp5-q25r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Medtronic CareLink Programmer","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can exploit a directory traversal vulnerability in Medtronic CareLink Programmer software to read arbitrary files on the system.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"icscert","cpe":[{"product":"2090_carelink_programmer_firmware","vendor":"medtronic"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-22","name":"Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory"},{"id":"CWE-23","name":"Relative Path Traversal"}],"description":"Medtronic 2090 CareLink Programmer’s software deployment network contains a directory traversal vulnerability that could allow an attacker to read files on the system.","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":"Medtronic 2090 Carelink Programmer Relative Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2018-5448","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in Moxa OnCell G3100-HSPA Series","id":"CVE-2018-5449"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Nari PCS-9611","id":"CVE-2018-5447"},"products":["2090 CareLink Programmer","29901 Encore Programmer"],"published":"2018-05-04","related":[{"cvss_score":7.1,"headline":"Medtronic 2090 Carelink Programmer Improper Restriction of Communication Channel to Intended Endpoints","id":"CVE-2018-10596","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-02"},{"cvss_score":4.9,"headline":"Medtronic 2090 Carelink Programmer Storing Passwords in a Recoverable Format","id":"CVE-2018-5446","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-04"}],"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":"2025-05-22","vendors":["Medtronic"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit a directory traversal vulnerability in Medtronic CareLink Programmer software to read arbitrary files on the system.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5448/"}
