CVE-2018-18838

24
FAUCET Score

CVE-2018-18838 describes a Log Injection (Log Forgery) vulnerability in Netdata version 1.10.0, specifically impacting the 'my-netdata' and 'netdata' products. This high-severity vulnerability (CVSS 7.5) allows an unauthenticated attacker to inject arbitrary data into logs by including a newline character (%0a) in the 'url' parameter of the 'api/v1/registry' endpoint. While the attack complexity is low and requires no user interaction, the primary impact is high integrity compromise, potentially leading to misleading log analysis and hindering incident response. There is currently no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion or media coverage surrounding this CVE.
