An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-7824 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Schneider Electric Modbus Serial Driver (For 64-bit Windows OS:V3.17 IE 37 and prior , For 32-bit Windows OS:V2.17 IE 27 and prior, and as part of the Driver Suite version:V14.12 and prior). 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-2018-7824/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7824/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-7824","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7824/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-7824","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-r578-gc8q-v9ww"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Modbus Serial Driver","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"An attacker can exploit an externally controlled reference to write to system files, potentially escalating privileges or modifying critical data.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"schneider","cpe":[{"product":"driver_suite","vendor":"schneider-electric"},{"product":"modbus_serial_driver","vendor":"schneider-electric"}],"cvss":{"score":4.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-610","name":"Externally Controlled Reference to a Resource in Another Sphere"}],"description":"An Externally Controlled Reference to a Resource (CWE-610) vulnerability exists in Schneider Electric Modbus Serial Driver (For 64-bit Windows OS:V3.17 IE 37 and prior , For 32-bit Windows OS:V2.17 IE 27 and prior, and as part of the Driver Suite version:V14.12 and prior) which could allow write access to system files available only to users with SYSTEM privilege or other important user files.","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":"Path traversal in Schneider Electric Modbus Serial Driver (For 64-bit Windows OS:V3.17 IE 37 and prior , For 32-bit Windows OS:V2.17 IE 27 and prior, and as part of the Driver Suite version:V14.12 and prior)","id":"CVE-2018-7824","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in Pelco Sarix Enhanced and Spectra Enhanced, Pelco Sarix Enhanced 1st generation and Spectra Enhanced PTZ","id":"CVE-2018-7825"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Other in SoMachine Basic and Modicon M221, SoMachine Basic, all versions Modicon M221, all references, all versions prior to firmware V1.10.0.0","id":"CVE-2018-7823"},"products":["Schneider Electric Modbus Serial Driver (For 64-bit Windows OS:V3.17 IE 37 and prior , For 32-bit Windows OS:V2.17 IE 27 and prior, and as part of the Driver Suite version:V14.12 and prior)"],"published":"2019-05-22","related":[],"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":["Schneider"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit an externally controlled reference to write to system files, potentially escalating privileges or modifying critical data.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7824/"}
