An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-6667 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: McAfee Web Gateway. 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-2018-6667/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6667/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-6667","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6667/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-6667","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qhv2-x36h-3gcf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Web Gateway","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass authentication in the administrative interface to execute arbitrary code via JMX, requiring immediate patching.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trellix","cpe":[{"product":"mcafee_web_gateway","vendor":"mcafee"}],"cvss":{"score":10,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-287","name":"Improper Authentication"}],"description":"Authentication Bypass vulnerability in the administrative user interface in McAfee Web Gateway 7.8.1.0 through 7.8.1.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via Java management extensions (JMX).","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":"McAfee Web Gateway - Authentication Bypass vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-6667","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Bypass Application Control with simple DLL","id":"CVE-2018-6668"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Endpoint","id":"CVE-2018-6664"},"products":["Web Gateway"],"published":"2018-06-26","related":[{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"McAfee Web Gateway (MWG) - Directory Traversal vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-6677","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-23"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"McAfee Web Gateway denial of service attack due to Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2019-3581","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-01-09"},{"cvss_score":3.4,"headline":"McAfee Web Gateway (MWG) - Configuration/Environment manipulation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-6678","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-23"}],"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":["McAfee"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can bypass authentication in the administrative interface to execute arbitrary code via JMX, requiring immediate patching.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6667/"}
