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-2018-7673 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: NetIQ Identity Manager. 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-2018-7673/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7673/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-7673","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7673/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-7673","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6wc4-c7m9-9699"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Identity Management Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service in NetIQ Identity Manager via its communication channel, affecting service availability.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microfocus","cpe":[{"product":"identity_manager","vendor":"netiq"}],"cvss":{"score":5.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"The NetIQ Identity Manager communication channel, in versions prior to 4.7, is susceptible to a DoS attack.","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":"NetIQ Identity Manager DoS Attack","id":"CVE-2018-7673","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"IDM URL Redirection attack","id":"CVE-2018-7674"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-7669"},"products":["Identity Manager"],"published":"2018-03-26","related":[{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-4803","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-09-14"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in NetIQ Designer for Identity Manager before 4.5.3","id":"CVE-2015-0787","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-10-27"},{"cvss_score":6.1,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in NetIQ Designer for Identity Manager before 4.5.3","id":"CVE-2016-1592","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-10-27"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"iManager - Multiple Reflected Cross-Site Scripting attacks","id":"CVE-2017-7427","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-05"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"iManager - XML External Entity vulnerabilities","id":"CVE-2017-7426","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-01"},{"cvss_score":5.3,"headline":"NetIQ Identity Manager SSL Renegotiation","id":"CVE-2018-1348","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-03-26"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["NetIQ"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service in NetIQ Identity Manager via its communication channel, affecting service availability.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7673/"}
