An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-42001 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: PingID 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-2021-42001/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-42001/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-42001","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-42001/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-42001","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8h4f-v5fw-fh7v"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PingID Desktop","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Misconfigured encryption libraries in PingID Desktop allow attackers to expose sensitive data and bypass MFA challenges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"misconfiguration"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Ping Identity","cpe":[{"product":"pingid_desktop","vendor":"pingidentity"}],"cvss":{"score":8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-310","name":null}],"description":"PingID Desktop prior to 1.7.3 has a misconfiguration in the encryption libraries which can lead to sensitive data exposure.
