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-2021-31728 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2021-31728/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31728/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-31728","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-31728/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-31728","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hgc8-6w6r-m2w8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MalwareFox AntiMalware","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit incorrect access control in MalwareFox drivers to achieve ring 0 code execution and elevate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"antimalware","vendor":"malwarefox"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Incorrect access control in zam64.sys, zam32.sys in MalwareFox AntiMalware 2.74.0.150 allows a non-privileged process to open a handle to \\.\\ZemanaAntiMalware, register itself with the driver by sending IOCTL 0x80002010, allocate executable memory using a flaw in IOCTL 0x80002040, install a hook with IOCTL 0x80002044 and execute the executable memory using this hook with IOCTL 0x80002014 or 0x80002018, this exposes ring 0 code execution in the context of the driver allowing the non-privileged process to elevate privileges.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2021-05-04","github_poc":1,"max_poc_stars":89,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2021-05-04T17:15:58Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/irql/CVE-2021-31728","stars":89,"title":"vulnerability in zam64.sys, zam32.sys allowing ring 0 code execution.
