Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2018-7691 exists.\n\nAffected product: Micro Focus Fortify Software Security Center (SSC). 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-2018-7691/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7691/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-7691","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7691/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-7691","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vm65-3x3v-mrfh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass","data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Fortify SSC","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass authentication to gain unauthorized access to Micro Focus Fortify Software Security Center.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microfocus","cpe":[{"product":"fortify_software_security_center","vendor":"microfocus"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"A potential Remote Unauthorized Access in Micro Focus Fortify Software Security Center (SSC), versions 17.10, 17.20, 18.10 this exploitation could allow Remote Unauthorized Access","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2018-11-26","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":1,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2018-11-26T13:54:08Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/alt3kx/CVE-2018-7691","stars":1,"title":"The SSC REST API contains Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerabilities  in Fortify Software Security Center (SSC) 17.10, 17.20 \u0026 18.10  "},{"date":"2018-12-14","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"45990","stars":null,"title":"Fortify Software Security Center (SSC) 17.10/17.20/18.10 - Information Disclosure (2)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"MFSBGN03835 rev.1 - Fortify Software Security Center (SSC), Remote Unauthorized Access","id":"CVE-2018-7691","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Open redirect in NetIQ eDirectory Versions prior to 9.1.1 HF1","id":"CVE-2018-7692"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"MFSBGN03835 rev.1 - Fortify Software Security Center (SSC), Remote Unauthorized Access","id":"CVE-2018-7690"},"products":["Fortify Software Security Center (SSC)"],"published":"2018-12-13","related":[{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"MFSBGN03835 rev.1 - Fortify Software Security Center (SSC), Remote Unauthorized Access","id":"CVE-2018-7690","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-13"},{"cvss_score":5.4,"headline":"KM03461174 Micro Focus Fortify Software Security Center Server, CVE-2019-11649","id":"CVE-2019-11649","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-06-19"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["Micro Focus"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can bypass authentication to gain unauthorized access to Micro Focus Fortify Software Security Center.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7691/"}
