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-2021-31429 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Parallels Parallels Desktop. 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-2021-31429/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31429/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-31429","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31429/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-31429","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9hgr-v6cx-qmq2"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Parallels Desktop","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Local attackers with guest code execution can escalate privileges to the hypervisor via a heap buffer overflow in the IDE virtual device.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"zdi","cpe":[{"product":"parallels_desktop","vendor":"parallels"}],"cvss":{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-122","name":"Heap-based Buffer Overflow"}],"description":"This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on affected installations of Parallels Desktop 15.1.5-47309. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute high-privileged code on the target guest system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the IDE virtual device. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of the length of user-supplied data prior to copying it to a fixed-length heap-based buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of the hypervisor.
