An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-40018 exists.\n\nAffected product: signalwire freeswitch. 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-2023-40018/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-40018/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-40018","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-40018/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-40018","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7mwp-86fv-hcg3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Telecom software stack","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can trigger out-of-bounds writes via malformed ICE candidates, causing memory corruption, crashes, or potential code execution in FreeSWITCH.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"freeswitch","vendor":"freeswitch"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"FreeSWITCH is a Software Defined Telecom Stack enabling the digital transformation from proprietary telecom switches to a software implementation that runs on any commodity hardware. Prior to version 1.10.10, FreeSWITCH allows remote users to trigger out of bounds write by offering an ICE candidate with unknown component ID. When an SDP is offered with any ICE candidates with an unknown component ID, FreeSWITCH will make an out of bounds write to its  arrays. By abusing this vulnerability, an attacker is able to corrupt FreeSWITCH memory leading to an undefined behavior of the system or a crash of it. Version 1.10.10 contains a patch for this issue.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"FreeSWITCH allows remote users to trigger out of bounds write by offering an ICE candidate with unknown component ID","id":"CVE-2023-40018","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in freeswitch","id":"CVE-2023-40019"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Geonode Server Side Request Forgery vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-40017"},"products":["freeswitch"],"published":"2023-09-15","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"FreeSWITCH: Pre-authentication heap buffer overflow in `mod_verto` HTTP POST body read","id":"CVE-2026-49841","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-09"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-19492","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-12-02"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"FreeSWITCH: Pre-authentication heap buffer overflow in libesl `Content-Length` parsing","id":"CVE-2026-49840","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-09"},{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"FreeSWITCH susceptible to Denial of Service via SIP flooding","id":"CVE-2021-41145","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-10-25"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Freeswitch Denial-of-Service in SIP PUBLISH Requests via XML Entity Expansion","id":"CVE-2026-45771","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-09"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"FreeSWITCH: Out-of-bounds memory access in core STUN attribute parsing","id":"CVE-2026-49475","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-09"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"FreeSWITCH: Pre-authentication bandwidth amplification via `mod_verto` speed-test frames","id":"CVE-2026-49842","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-09"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-25","vendors":["signalwire"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can trigger out-of-bounds writes via malformed ICE candidates, causing memory corruption, crashes, or potential code execution in FreeSWITCH.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-40018/"}
