Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-32462 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Trend Micro Password Manager. 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-2021-32462/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-32462/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-32462","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-32462/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-32462","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8v9f-vv9v-mqqv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Password Manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated unprivileged user can exploit an exposed hazardous function to manipulate the registry and escalate privileges to SYSTEM.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trendmicro","cpe":[{"product":"password_manager","vendor":"trendmicro"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Trend Micro Password Manager (Consumer) version 5.0.0.1217 and below is vulnerable to an Exposed Hazardous Function Remote Code Execution vulnerability which could allow an unprivileged client to manipulate the registry and escalate privileges to SYSTEM on affected installations.
