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-2022-2188 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Trellix DXL Broker. 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-2022-2188/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2188/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-2188","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-2188/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-2188","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-h7pw-cjr2-mh4p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"DXL Broker","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can exploit weak directory permissions in DXL Broker logs to escalate privileges and cause denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trellix","cpe":[{"product":"data_exchange_layer","vendor":"mcafee"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"Privilege escalation vulnerability in DXL Broker for Windows prior to 6.0.0.280 allows local users to gain elevated privileges by exploiting weak directory controls in the logs directory.
