The script included with Spring Boot is susceptible to a symlink attack which allows the `run_user` to overwrite and take ownership of any file on the same system. In order to instigate the attack, the application must be installed as a service and the `run_user` requires shell access to the server.", "references": [ { "reference_url": "https://access.redhat.com/hydra/rest/securitydata/cve/CVE-2018-1196.json", "reference_id": "", "reference_type": "", "scores": [ { "value": "6.8", "scoring_system": "cvssv3", "scoring_elements": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N" } ], "url": "https://access.redhat.com/hydra/rest/securitydata/cve/CVE-2018-1196.json" }, { "reference_url": "https://api.first.org/data/v1/epss?cve=CVE-2018-1196", "reference_id": "", "reference_type": "", "scores": [ { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.6963", "published_at": "2026-04-18T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69521", "published_at": "2026-04-07T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69572", "published_at": "2026-04-08T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69588", "published_at": "2026-04-09T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.6961", "published_at": "2026-04-21T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69595", "published_at": "2026-04-12T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69581", "published_at": "2026-04-13T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69621", "published_at": "2026-04-16T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69516", "published_at": "2026-04-01T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69527", "published_at": "2026-04-02T12:55:00Z" }, { "value": "0.00604", "scoring_system": "epss", "scoring_elements": "0.69543", "published_at": "2026-04-04T12:55:00Z" } ], "url": "https://api.first.org/data/v1/epss?cve=CVE-2018-1196" }, { "reference_url": "https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-xx65-cc7g-9pfp", "reference_id": "", "reference_type": "", "scores": [ { "value": "5.9", "scoring_system": "cvssv3.1", "scoring_elements": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N" }, { "value": "MODERATE", "scoring_system": "cvssv3.1_qr", "scoring_elements": "" }, { "value": "MODERATE", "scoring_system": "generic_textual", "scoring_elements": "" } ], "url": "https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-xx65-cc7g-9pfp" }, { "reference_url": "https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-1196", "reference_id": "", "reference_type": "", "scores": [ { "value": "5.9", "scoring_system": "cvssv3.1", "scoring_elements": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N" }, { "value": "MODERATE", "scoring_system": "generic_textual", "scoring_elements": "" } ], "url": "https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-1196" }, { "reference_url": "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1542002", "reference_id": "1542002", "reference_type": "", "scores": [], "url": "https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1542002" }, { "reference_url": "https://pivotal.io/security/cve-2018-1196", "reference_id": "CVE-2018-1196", "reference_type": "", "scores": [ { "value": "5.9", "scoring_system": "cvssv3.1", "scoring_elements": "CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N" }, { "value": "MODERATE", "scoring_system": "generic_textual", "scoring_elements": "" } ], "url": "https://pivotal.io/security/cve-2018-1196" } ], "fixed_packages": [ { "url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/api/packages/78138?format=api", "purl": "pkg:maven/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot@1.5.10", "is_vulnerable": false, "affected_by_vulnerabilities": [], "resource_url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/packages/pkg:maven/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot@1.5.10" }, { "url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/api/packages/27028?format=api", "purl": "pkg:maven/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot@1.5.10.RELEASE", "is_vulnerable": true, "affected_by_vulnerabilities": [ { "vulnerability": "VCID-6sye-grs9-dqfh" }, { "vulnerability": "VCID-k3fg-3bs3-87b9" }, { "vulnerability": "VCID-kwk7-s11d-4ygy" } ], "resource_url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/packages/pkg:maven/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot@1.5.10.RELEASE" } ], "aliases": [ "CVE-2018-1196", "GHSA-xx65-cc7g-9pfp" ], "risk_score": 3.1, "exploitability": "0.5", "weighted_severity": "6.2", "resource_url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/vulnerabilities/VCID-hek3-n96t-bydw" } ], "fixing_vulnerabilities": [], "risk_score": "3.1", "resource_url": "http://public2.vulnerablecode.io/packages/pkg:maven/org.springframework.boot/spring-boot@1.5.0" }
