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-2018-6462 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-2018-6462/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6462/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-6462","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6462/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-6462","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j7pr-8g3c-9m5r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PDF viewer application","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via crafted PDFs due to incorrect color space conversion calculations in PDF-XChange Viewer.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"pdf-xchange_viewer","vendor":"tracker-software"},{"product":"viewer_ax_sdk","vendor":"tracker-software"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"Tracker PDF-XChange Viewer and Viewer AX SDK before 2.5.322.8 mishandle conversion from YCC to RGB colour spaces by calculating on the basis of 1 bpc instead of 8 bpc, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF document.","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":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6462","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Simditor XSS Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-6464"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6461"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-01-31","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-0729","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-04-02"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-13056","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-12-27"},{"cvss_score":6.9,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-5245","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-09-07"}],"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 execute arbitrary code via crafted PDFs due to incorrect color space conversion calculations in PDF-XChange Viewer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6462/"}
