{"id":"CVE-2018-11787","details":"In Apache Karaf version prior to 3.0.9, 4.0.9, 4.1.1, when the webconsole feature is installed in Karaf, it is available at .../system/console and requires authentication to access it. One part of the console is a Gogo shell/console that gives access to the command line console of Karaf via a Web browser, and when navigated to it is available at .../system/console/gogo. Trying to go directly to that URL does require authentication. And optional bundle that some applications use is the Pax Web Extender Whiteboard, it is part of the pax-war feature and perhaps others. When it is installed, the Gogo console becomes available at another URL .../gogo/, and that URL is not secured giving access to the Karaf console to unauthenticated users. A mitigation for the issue is to manually stop/uninstall Gogo plugin bundle that is installed with the webconsole feature, although of course this removes the console from the .../system/console application, not only from the unauthenticated endpoint. One could also stop/uninstall the Pax Web Extender Whiteboard, but other components/applications may require it and so their functionality would be reduced/compromised.","aliases":["GHSA-cq9c-55r7-455x"],"modified":"2026-07-08T17:15:01.795729Z","published":"2018-09-18T14:29:00.620Z","references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/d9ba4c3104ba32225646879a057b75b54430f349c246c85469037d3c%40%3Cdev.karaf.apache.org%3E"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-4993"},{"type":"FIX","url":"http://karaf.apache.org/security/cve-2018-11787.txt"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/apache/karaf","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"cc35db03bf215514cff03f449febc694de8abb11"},{"introduced":"16ca637a0c6ff362b8c5b4f93895a2d778b2fa15"},{"fixed":"78015102732b275e5775d29a988cc00ad0071f66"},{"introduced":"d10ef312d12f18dd38dd1af70c9c96e7b7f9354b"},{"fixed":"74a801a8e559f2899e47edd381cdff136808cd12"},{"introduced":"f5956bff28a8712edd530b5103a448bf0333135d"},{"last_affected":"75c68ac010caddcc35601630e715dc8c09e3b3eb"}],"database_specific":{"cpe":["cpe:2.3:a:apache:karaf:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","cpe:2.3:a:apache:karaf:4.0.0:milestone1:*:*:*:*:*:*","cpe:2.3:a:apache:karaf:4.0.0:milestone2:*:*:*:*:*:*","cpe:2.3:a:apache:karaf:4.0.0:milestone3:*:*:*:*:*:*"],"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"3.0.9"},{"introduced":"4.0.0"},{"fixed":"4.0.9"},{"introduced":"4.1.0"},{"fixed":"4.1.1"},{"introduced":"4.0.0-milestone1"},{"last_affected":"4.0.0-milestone1"},{"introduced":"4.0.0-milestone2"},{"last_affected":"4.0.0-milestone2"},{"introduced":"4.0.0-milestone3"},{"last_affected":"4.0.0-milestone3"}],"source":["CPE_RANGE","CPE_STRING"]}}],"versions":["4.0.0-milestone1","4.0.0-milestone2","4.0.0-milestone3","karaf-4.1.0","karaf-4.0.8","karaf-4.0.7","karaf-4.0.6","karaf-3.0.8","karaf-3.0.7","karaf-4.0.5","karaf-3.0.6","karaf-4.0.4","karaf-4.0.3","karaf-4.0.2","karaf-3.0.5","karaf-4.0.1","karaf-3.0.4","karaf-4.0.0.M3","karaf-4.0.0.M2","karaf-3.0.3","karaf-4.0.0.M1","karaf-3.0.2","karaf-3.0.1","karaf-3.0.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2018-11787.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
