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-2018-8061 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2018-8061/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-8061/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-8061","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-8061/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-8061","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4jm9-m9m4-wcj4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"HWiNFO kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An unprivileged user can exploit a kernel driver flaw to read or write physical memory, leading to privilege escalation and potential code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"amd64_kernel_driver","vendor":"hwinfo"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"HWiNFO AMD64 Kernel driver version 8.98 and lower allows an unprivileged user to send IOCTL 0x85FE2608 to the device driver with the HWiNFO32 symbolic device name, resulting in direct physical memory read or write.","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":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-8061","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-8062"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-8060"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-05-10","related":[{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-8060","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-05-10"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"An unprivileged user can exploit a kernel driver flaw to read or write physical memory, leading to privilege escalation and potential code execution.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-8061/"}
