It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2019-8342 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Foxitsoftware Foxit Reader. 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-2019-8342/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8342/index.md)","id":"CVE-2019-8342","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8342/index.md","name":"CVE-2019-8342","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-x48h-f8p3-4qv4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PDF reader","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges on macOS due to incorrect file permissions in Foxit Reader's library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"foxit_reader","vendor":"foxitsoftware"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"A Local Privilege Escalation in libqcocoa.dylib in Foxit Reader 3.1.0.0111 on macOS has been discovered due to an incorrect permission set.","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 n/a","id":"CVE-2019-8342","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"foxitsoftware:foxit_reader","products":["foxitsoftware:foxit_reader"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2019"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-8343"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-8341"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2019-05-13","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-33793","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-38568","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-38572","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-38573","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-38574","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-11"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-26534","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-26535","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-02"}],"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":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges on macOS due to incorrect file permissions in Foxit Reader's library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2019-8342/"}
