An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Chakra improperly discloses the contents of its memory, which could provide an attacker with information to further compromise the user's computer or data, aka "Chakra Scripting Engine Memory Corruption Vulnerability." This affects ChakraCore, Internet Explorer 11, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer 10. This CVE ID is unique from CVE-2018-0943, CVE-2018-8130, CVE-2018-8133, CVE-2018-8177.
CVE-2018-8145
Score elevated to 8.5 because EPSS predicts 67% probability of exploitation within the next 30 days (top 0.8% of all CVEs). NVD baseline CVSS 7.5 retained for reference. Confidence: see factors.
- High exploitation likelihood — EPSS 67%
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
