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-2018-6703 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: McAfee, LLC McAfee Agent. 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-2018-6703/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6703/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-6703","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6703/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-6703","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-3g76-65rh-62w4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"McAfee Agent","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service or execute code via a use-after-free in the disabled-by-default remote logging service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trellix","cpe":[{"product":"agent","vendor":"mcafee"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"Use After Free in Remote logging (which is disabled by default) in McAfee McAfee Agent (MA) 5.x prior to 5.6.0 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to cause a Denial of Service and potentially a remote code execution via a specially crafted HTTP header sent to the logging service.","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":"Remote Logging functionality had a use after free vulnerability in McAfee Agent","id":"CVE-2018-6703","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"McAfee Agent for Linux Privilege Escalation vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-6704"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"True Key (TK) - DLL Search Order Hijacking vulnerability","id":"CVE-2018-6700"},"products":["McAfee Agent"],"published":"2018-12-11","related":[{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"SQL injection vulnerability in McAfee Agent's ePO extension","id":"CVE-2022-1258","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-04-14"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"DLL high jacking in Trellix Agent","id":"CVE-2022-2313","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-07-27"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Improper privilege management in repair process of MA for Windows","id":"CVE-2021-31847","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-09-22"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Improper Privilege Management in McAfee Agent for Windows","id":"CVE-2022-1256","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-04-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation vulnerability in McAfee Agent","id":"CVE-2022-0166","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-19"},{"cvss_score":7.7,"headline":"Code injection vulnerability in McAfee Agent","id":"CVE-2021-31854","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-01-19"}],"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, LLC"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause denial of service or execute code via a use-after-free in the disabled-by-default remote logging service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6703/"}
