An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2017-2225 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2017-2225 is a critical vulnerability in Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) EbidSettingChecker.exe, published on 7 Jul 2017. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-2225 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) EbidSettingChecker.exe. 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-2017-2225/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2225/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-2225","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2225/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-2225","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-92hg-3gj8-j5m9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ebid Setting Checker","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can gain privileges by placing a malicious DLL in a directory searched by the EbidSettingChecker application.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"ebidsettingchecker","vendor":"mext"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-426","name":"Untrusted Search Path"}],"description":"Untrusted search path vulnerability in EbidSettingChecker.exe (version 1.0.0.0) allows an attacker to gain privileges via a Trojan horse DLL in an unspecified directory.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in EbidSettingChecker.exe","id":"CVE-2017-2225","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Setup file of advance preparation for e-Tax software (WEB version)","id":"CVE-2017-2226"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Event Calendar WD","id":"CVE-2017-2224"},"products":["EbidSettingChecker.exe"],"published":"2017-07-07","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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT)"]},"summary":"An attacker can gain privileges by placing a malicious DLL in a directory searched by the EbidSettingChecker application.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-2225/"}
