Last modified
CVE-2018-1547 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 8/10 on the CVSS scale. 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. EPSS estimates a 2.18% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
