CVE-2018-1547
IBM Robotic Process Automation with Automation Anywhere 10.0 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by improper output encoding in an CSV export.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.97%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
IBM Robotic Process Automation with Automation Anywhere 10.0 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by improper output encoding in an CSV export. By persuading a victim to download the CSV export, to open it in Microsoft Excel and to confirm the two security questions, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to run any command or program on the victim's machine. IBM X-Force ID: 142651.
