An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2007-4740 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4740/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4740/index.md)","id":"CVE-2007-4740","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4740/index.md","name":"CVE-2007-4740","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gwc2-wvg9-qvwv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_modify","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Alice Messenger ActiveX","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can modify Windows registry keys via the WriteRegistry method in the HPRevolutionRegistryManager ActiveX control, potentially leading to privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"missing_authorization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"alice_messenger","vendor":"telecom_italy"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"The HPRevolutionRegistryManager ActiveX control in Hp.Revolution.RegistryManager.dll 1 in Telecom Italy Alice Messenger allows remote attackers to create registry keys and values via the arguments to the WriteRegistry method.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2007-09-03","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2007-09-03","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"4357","stars":null,"title":"Telecom Italy Alice Messenger - Remote Registry Key Manipulation"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Missing authorization in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4740","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"missing_authorization","year":"2007"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":7,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4741"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-4739"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2007-09-06","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can modify Windows registry keys via the WriteRegistry method in the HPRevolutionRegistryManager ActiveX control, potentially leading to privilege escalation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2007-4740/"}
