An information disclosure vulnerability occurs when LibreOffice 6.0.3 and Apache OpenOffice Writer 4.1.5 automatically process and initiate an SMB connection embedded in a malicious file, as demonstrated by xlink:href=file://192.168.0.2/test.jpg within an office:document-content element in a .odt XML document.
CVE-2018-10583
Score elevated to 8.8 because EPSS predicts 79% probability of exploitation within the next 30 days (top 0.5% of all CVEs). NVD baseline CVSS 7.5 retained for reference. Confidence: see factors.
- High exploitation likelihood — EPSS 78%
- Public exploit code is available (Metasploit, epss top5pct, epss high, public exploit)
