An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-18717 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Applied Systems Engineering ASE2000 V2. 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-2026-18717/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18717/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-18717","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18717/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-18717","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qvg5-fcgx-c529"],"analysis":{"component_type":"ics_ot","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Industrial control system","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass TLS certificate validation to impersonate peers and read or modify protected communications in ASE 2000 systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"icscert","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.1,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-295","name":"Improper Certificate Validation"}],"description":"ASE2000 2.35 through 2.37 is vulnerable to an improper certificate validation vulnerability, which may allow an attacker to impersonate the trusted peer, complete the TLS handshake, and read or modify protected communications.","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":"Improper Certificate Validation in ASE 2000","id":"CVE-2026-18717","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Ghidra Swift Demangler Analyzer Arbitrary Code Execution via Project State","id":"CVE-2026-18718"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Vulnerabilities in IBM AIX and PowerVM VIOS","id":"CVE-2026-18716"},"products":["ASE2000 V2"],"published":"2026-08-27","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-28","vendors":["Applied Systems Engineering"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass TLS certificate validation to impersonate peers and read or modify protected communications in ASE 2000 systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-18717/"}
