An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2010-0483 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2010-0483 is a high-severity code injection vulnerability in Microsoft Windows 2000, published on 3 Mar 2010. 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-2010-0483 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 2000. 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-2010-0483/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-0483/index.md)","id":"CVE-2010-0483","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-0483/index.md","name":"CVE-2010-0483","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-pc6r-6288-xqwh"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows VBScript","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code via crafted help files in VBScript when users press F1 in Internet Explorer.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_2000","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_2003_server","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2003","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_xp","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.6,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"vbscript.dll in VBScript 5.1, 5.6, 5.7, and 5.8 in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2 and SP3, and Server 2003 SP2, when Internet Explorer is used, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by referencing a (1) local pathname, (2) UNC share pathname, or (3) WebDAV server with a crafted .hlp file in the fourth argument (aka helpfile argument) to the MsgBox function, leading to code execution involving winhlp32.exe when the F1 key is pressed, aka \"VBScript Help Keypress Vulnerability.\"","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":2,"first_seen":"2010-02-26","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2010-02-26","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/windows/browser/ms10_022_ie_vbscript_winhlp32","stars":null,"title":"MS10-022 Microsoft Internet Explorer Winhlp32.exe MsgBox Code Execution"},{"date":"2010-03-02","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"11615","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Internet Explorer 6/7/8 - 'winhlp32.exe MsgBox()' Remote Code Execution"},{"date":"2010-09-28","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"16541","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Internet Explorer - 'Winhlp32.exe' MsgBox Code Execution (MS10-023) (Metasploit)"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0483","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_2000","products":["microsoft:windows_2000","microsoft:windows_2003_server","microsoft:windows_server_2003","microsoft:windows_xp"],"type":"code_injection","year":"2010"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":20,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0484"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0482"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2010-03-03","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2008-4250","kev_date_added":"2026-05-20","published":"2008-10-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Kernel Exception Handler","id":"CVE-2010-0232","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2010-01-21"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2009-1123","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2009-06-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2002-0367","kev_date_added":"2022-03-03","published":"2003-04-02"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0269","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-04-14"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Weak cryptography in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0231","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-02-10"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-3677","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-12-09"}],"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":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"},{"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 execute arbitrary code via crafted help files in VBScript when users press F1 in Internet Explorer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2010-0483/"}
