It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2019-18568 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2019-18568 is a high-severity vulnerability in AVIRA Antivirus Free Antivirus, published on 31 Dec 2019. 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-2019-18568 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: AVIRA Antivirus Free Antivirus. 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-2019-18568/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-18568/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-18568","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-18568/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-18568","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pr3m-8r44-67c8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Avira Free Antivirus","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can execute kernel code to escalate privileges on systems running Avira Free Antivirus.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"airbus","cpe":[{"product":"free_antivirus","vendor":"avira"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:L","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-680","name":"Integer Overflow to Buffer Overflow"}],"description":"Avira Free Antivirus 15.0.1907.1514 is prone to a local privilege escalation through the execution of kernel code from a restricted user.","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 Antivirus Free Antivirus","id":"CVE-2019-18568","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in RSA Identity Governance \u0026 Lifecycle","id":"CVE-2019-18571"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Bromium client - out of bound read results in race condition causing Kernel memory leaks or denial of service","id":"CVE-2019-18567"},"products":["Antivirus Free Antivirus"],"published":"2019-12-31","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-8961","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-09"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-12680","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-08"}],"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":"2024-09-17","vendors":["AVIRA"]},"summary":"A local attacker can execute kernel code to escalate privileges on systems running Avira Free Antivirus.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-18568/"}
