An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-1000424 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- electron (npm): affected from 1.7.0; fixed in 1.7.6\n- electron (npm): affected from 1.7.0; fixed in 1.7.6\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-2017-1000424/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-1000424/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-1000424","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-1000424/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-1000424","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6h98-cf9g-vmg2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Electron framework","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can spoof URLs when opening PDFs in Electron applications, potentially misleading users about the content source.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"electron","vendor":"atom"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Github Electron version 1.6.4 - 1.6.11 and 1.7.0 - 1.7.5 is vulnerable to a URL Spoofing problem when opening PDFs in PDFium resulting loading arbitrary PDFs that a hacker can control.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Electron vulnerable to URL spoofing via PDFium","id":"CVE-2017-1000424","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2017"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Liferay Portal XSS vulnerability via movie parameter in the /html/portal/flash.jsp page","id":"CVE-2017-1000425"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["1.7.6"],"introduced":["1.7.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"electron","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-6h98-cf9g-vmg2"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["1.7.6"],"introduced":["1.7.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"electron","purl":"pkg:npm/electron","source":"GHSA-6h98-cf9g-vmg2"}],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-1000423"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2018-01-02","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Remote Code Execution in electron","id":"CVE-2018-1000006","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-01-24"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"High severity vulnerability that affects electron","id":"CVE-2016-1202","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-04-25"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can spoof URLs when opening PDFs in Electron applications, potentially misleading users about the content source.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-1000424/"}
