An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-1043 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 10. 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-2019-1043/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-1043/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-1043","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-1043/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-1043","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jv5f-3fwg-6pqw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows comctl32.dll","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Remote code execution via memory corruption in comctl32.dll allows attackers to take control of systems when users visit malicious websites.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_10","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_7","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_8.1","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_rt_8.1","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2008","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2012","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2016","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2019","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":6.4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:P/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that comctl32.dll handles objects in memory. The vulnerability could corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user. If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, the attacker could take control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.\nAn attacker could host a specially crafted website designed to exploit the vulnerability through Internet Explorer and then convince a user to view the website. The attacker could also take advantage of compromised websites, or websites that accept or host user-provided content or advertisements, by adding specially crafted content that could exploit the vulnerability. However, in all cases an attacker would have no way to force a user to view the attacker-controlled content. Instead, an attacker would have to convince a user to take action, typically by an enticement in an email or instant message, or by getting the user to open an attachment sent through email.\nThe security update addresses the vulnerability by modifying how comctl32.dll handles objects in memory.","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":"Comctl32 Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2019-1043","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_10","products":["microsoft:windows_10","microsoft:windows_7","microsoft:windows_8.1","microsoft:windows_rt_8.1","microsoft:windows_server_2008","microsoft:windows_server_2012","microsoft:windows_server_2016","microsoft:windows_server_2019"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Windows Secure Kernel Mode Security Feature Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2019-1044"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2019-1042"},"products":["Windows 10 Version 1507","Windows 10 Version 1607","Windows 10 Version 1703","Windows 10 Version 1709","Windows 10 Version 1709 for 32-bit Systems","Windows 10 Version 1803","Windows 10 Version 1809","Windows 10 Version 1903 for 32-bit Systems","Windows 10 Version 1903 for ARM64-based Systems","Windows 10 Version 1903 for x64-based Systems","Windows 7","Windows 7 Service Pack 1","Windows 8.1","Windows Server 2008  Service Pack 2","Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1","Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (Server Core installation)","Windows Server 2008 R2 Systems Service Pack 1","Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2","Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 (Server Core installation)","Windows Server 2012","Windows Server 2012 (Server Core installation)","Windows Server 2012 R2","Windows Server 2012 R2 (Server Core installation)","Windows Server 2016","Windows Server 2016 (Server Core installation)","Windows Server 2019","Windows Server 2019 (Server Core installation)","Windows Server, version 1803  (Server Core Installation)","Windows Server, version 1903 (Server Core installation)"],"published":"2019-06-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Adobe Type Manager Library Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2015-2426","kev_date_added":"2022-03-28","published":"2015-07-20"},{"cvss_score":6.6,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Mount Manager Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2015-1769","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2015-08-15"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Windows Hard Link Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2020-1467","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-08-17"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Windows TCP/IP Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2021-26424","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-12"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Windows Hyper-V Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2021-28476","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-05-11"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Windows Hyper-V Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2021-26867","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-03-11"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Windows","id":"CVE-2019-1384","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-11-12"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-20","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"Remote code execution via memory corruption in comctl32.dll allows attackers to take control of systems when users visit malicious websites.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-1043/"}
