An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-5548 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: F5 Big-Ip Access Policy Manager. 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-2018-5548/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5548/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-5548","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5548/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-5548","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hqqf-5vjp-3gwx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"BIG-IP APM","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can manipulate the orig_uri parameter in BIG-IP APM to construct a malicious redirect URI, potentially bypassing security controls.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"open_redirect"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"f5","cpe":[{"product":"big-ip_access_policy_manager","vendor":"f5"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-601","name":"URL Redirection to Untrusted Site"}],"description":"On BIG-IP APM 11.6.0-11.6.3, an insecure AES ECB mode is used for orig_uri parameter in an undisclosed /vdesk link of APM virtual server configured with an access profile, allowing a malicious user to build a redirect URI value using different blocks of cipher texts.","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":"Open redirect in BIG-IP APM","id":"CVE-2018-5548","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"f5:big-ip_access_policy_manager","products":["f5:big-ip_access_policy_manager"],"type":"open_redirect","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in BIG-IP APM","id":"CVE-2018-5549"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in BIG-IP APM client for Windows","id":"CVE-2018-5547"},"products":["BIG-IP APM"],"published":"2018-09-13","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Configuration Utility Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2023-46747","kev_date_added":"2023-10-31","published":"2023-10-26"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Missing Authentication","id":"CVE-2022-1388","kev_date_added":"2022-05-10","published":"2022-05-05"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP and BIG-IQ Centralized Management iControl REST Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2021-22986","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-03-31"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Traffic Management Microkernel Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2021-22991","kev_date_added":"2022-01-18","published":"2021-03-31"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Traffic Management User Interface (TMUI) Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-5902","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-07-01"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP APM Heap-based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2026-94127","kev_date_added":"2026-09-22","published":"2026-09-22"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"F5 BIG-IP Stack-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2025-53521","kev_date_added":"2026-03-27","published":"2025-10-15"}],"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":"2024-09-16","vendors":["F5 Networks, Inc."]},"summary":"An attacker can manipulate the orig_uri parameter in BIG-IP APM to construct a malicious redirect URI, potentially bypassing security controls.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-5548/"}
