It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-5922 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: The installer of Microsoft Teams. 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-2019-5922/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5922/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-5922","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5922/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-5922","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4xfv-h3v4-ch7r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft Teams installer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can gain privileges via a Trojan horse DLL in the Microsoft Teams installer due to an untrusted search path vulnerability.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"teams","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/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 The installer of Microsoft Teams 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 The installer of Microsoft Teams","id":"CVE-2019-5922","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in iChain Insurance Wallet App for iOS","id":"CVE-2019-5923"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Windows 7","id":"CVE-2019-5921"},"products":["The installer of Microsoft Teams"],"published":"2019-03-12","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Microsoft Teams Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-65667","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-06"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Microsoft Teams Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-62896","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-06"},{"cvss_score":9.6,"headline":"Microsoft Team Events Portal Information Disclosure Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-33823","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-07"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Teams for Android Spoofing Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-65767","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Teams Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-65768","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Teams Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-29328","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Teams Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-29330","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-08"}],"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":"2024-08-04","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"An attacker can gain privileges via a Trojan horse DLL in the Microsoft Teams installer due to an untrusted search path vulnerability.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-5922/"}
