What it is: CVE-2018-7797 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Schneider Electric SE Power Monitoring Expert, Energy Expert (formerly Power Manager) - EcoStruxureª Power Monitoring Expert (PME) v8.2 (all editions), EcoStruxureª Energy Expert 1.3 (formerly Power Manager), EcoStruxureª Power SCADA Operation (PSO) 8.2 Advanced Reports and Dashboards Module, EcoStruxureª Power Monitoring Expert (PME) v9.0, EcoStruxureª Energy Expert v2.0, and EcoStruxureªPower SCADA Operation (PSO) 9.0 Advanced Reports and Dashboards Module, published on 17 Dec 2018. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link. Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-7797 in the wild and no public exploit code. Affected product: Schneider Electric SE Power Monitoring Expert, Energy Expert (formerly Power Manager) - EcoStruxureª Power Monitoring Expert (PME) v8.2 (all editions), EcoStruxureª Energy Expert 1.3 (formerly Power Manager), EcoStruxureª Power SCADA Operation (PSO) 8.2 Advanced Reports and Dashboards Module, EcoStruxureª Power Monitoring Expert (PME) v9.0, EcoStruxureª Energy Expert v2.0, and EcoStruxureªPower SCADA Operation (PSO) 9.0 Advanced Reports and Dashboards Module. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page. Task: 1. 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. 2. 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. 3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead. 4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why. 5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
