CVE-2018-10769 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 7.5) affecting smartmesh, ugtoken, gg token. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.

The transferProxy and approveProxy functions of a smart contract implementation for SmartMesh (SMT), an Ethereum ERC20 token, allow attackers to accomplish an unauthorized transfer of digital assets because replay attacks can occur with the same-named functions (with the same signatures) in other tokens: First (FST), GG Token (GG), M2C Mesh Network (MTC), M2C Mesh Network (mesh), and UG Token (UGT).
