It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-7840 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: VideoXpert OpsCenter versions prior to 3.1. 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-2018-7840/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7840/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-7840","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7840/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-7840","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f6jf-8jc8-q659"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VideoXpert OpsCenter","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can exploit an uncontrolled search path to load a malicious DLL, potentially executing arbitrary code on VideoXpert OpsCenter systems.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"schneider","cpe":[{"product":"videoxpert_opscenter","vendor":"pelco"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"A Uncontrolled Search Path Element (CWE-427) vulnerability exists in VideoXpert OpsCenter versions prior to 3.1 which could allow an attacker to cause the system to call an incorrect DLL.","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":"Other in VideoXpert OpsCenter versions prior to 3.1","id":"CVE-2018-7840","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Schneider Electric U.motion Builder SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2018-7841"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Weak cryptography in IIoT Monitor 3.1.38","id":"CVE-2018-7839"},"products":["VideoXpert OpsCenter versions prior to 3.1"],"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":["VideoXpert"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit an uncontrolled search path to load a malicious DLL, potentially executing arbitrary code on VideoXpert OpsCenter systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-7840/"}
