An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-22750 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Mozilla Firefox. 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-2022-22750/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-22750/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-22750","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-22750/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-22750","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cpxq-p6pr-9jf6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Firefox browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A compromised content process can trick higher-privileged processes into accessing restricted resource handles, enabling privilege escalation in Firefox.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mozilla","cpe":[{"product":"firefox","vendor":"mozilla"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"By generally accepting and passing resource handles across processes, a compromised content process might have confused higher privileged processes to interact with handles that the unprivileged process should not have access to.\u003cbr\u003e*This bug only affects Firefox for Windows and MacOS.
