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-2018-6115 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Google Chrome. 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-2018-6115/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6115/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-6115","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6115/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-6115","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-88x6-h36j-mqgw","UBUNTU-CVE-2018-6115"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Google Chrome","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass OS malware checks during file downloads in Google Chrome by exploiting improper flag settings in crafted HTML pages.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Chrome","cpe":[{"product":"chrome","vendor":"google"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Inappropriate setting of the SEE_MASK_FLAG_NO_UI flag in file downloads in Google Chrome prior to 66.0.3359.117 allowed a remote attacker to potentially bypass OS malware checks via a crafted HTML page.","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":"Security feature bypass in Chrome","id":"CVE-2018-6115","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"google:chrome","products":["google:chrome"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in Chrome","id":"CVE-2018-6116"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in Chrome","id":"CVE-2018-6114"},"products":["Chrome"],"published":"2018-12-04","related":[{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chromium GPU Heap Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-4135","kev_date_added":"2022-11-28","published":"2022-11-25"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chrome Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2020-16017","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-01-08"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Google Chrome for Android UI Heap Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2020-16010","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-11-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Google Chromium V8 Out of Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-87491","kev_date_added":"2026-09-09","published":"2026-09-09"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Google Chromium V8 Type Confusion","id":"CVE-2026-85046","kev_date_added":"2026-09-04","published":"2026-09-03"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Google Chromium V8 Out-of-Bounds Read and Write","id":"CVE-2026-11645","kev_date_added":"2026-06-09","published":"2026-06-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Google Dawn Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2026-5281","kev_date_added":"2026-04-01","published":"2026-04-01"}],"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":["Google"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can bypass OS malware checks during file downloads in Google Chrome by exploiting improper flag settings in crafted HTML pages.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6115/"}
