It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-6857 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-2018-6857/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6857/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-6857","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6857/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-6857","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rjjm-87v7-ffxf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Sophos SafeGuard","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges to SYSTEM by exploiting an IOCTL vulnerability in Sophos SafeGuard products to modify token privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"safeguard_easy_device_encryption_client","vendor":"sophos"},{"product":"safeguard_enterprise_client","vendor":"sophos"},{"product":"safeguard_lan_crypt_client","vendor":"sophos"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Sophos SafeGuard Enterprise before 8.00.5, SafeGuard Easy before 7.00.3, and SafeGuard LAN Crypt before 3.95.2 are vulnerable to Local Privilege Escalation via IOCTL 0x802022E0. By crafting an input buffer we can control the execution path to the point where the constant 0x12 will be written to a user-controlled address. We can take advantage of this condition to modify the SEP_TOKEN_PRIVILEGES structure of the Token object belonging to the exploit process and grant SE_DEBUG_NAME privilege. This allows the exploit process to interact with higher privileged processes running as SYSTEM and execute code in their security context.","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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6857","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6858"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6856"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-07-09","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6851","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6852","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6853","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6854","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6855","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-6856","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-07-09"}],"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":"Local attackers can escalate privileges to SYSTEM by exploiting an IOCTL vulnerability in Sophos SafeGuard products to modify token privileges.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-6857/"}
