An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-18653 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-2019-18653/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-18653/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-18653","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-18653/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-18653","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c7cg-5x5v-hrhj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Avast Antivirus","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute JavaScript code via a malicious SSID name in the Avast Antivirus network notification popup.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"antivirus","vendor":"avast"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"A Cross Site Scripting (XSS) issue exists in Avast AntiVirus (Free, Internet Security, and Premiere Edition) 19.3.2369 build 19.3.4241.440 in the Network Notification Popup, allowing an attacker to execute JavaScript code via an SSID Name.","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":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-18653","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-18654"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-18652"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-11-01","related":[{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Race condition in (Free/Inernet Security/Ultimate) Antivirus","id":"CVE-2025-13032","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10867","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-04-01"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-8307","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-04-27"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Integer Overflow in Avast Antiviurs 25.1.981.6 on Windows may result in privilege escalation","id":"CVE-2025-3500","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-12-01"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-45335","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-12-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation vulnerability in the Sandbox component of Avast Antivirus prior to 20.4 allows a local sandboxed code to gain elevated","id":"CVE-2021-45336","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-12-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-45337","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-12-27"}],"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 attacker can execute JavaScript code via a malicious SSID name in the Avast Antivirus network notification popup.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-18653/"}
