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-2022-23563 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- tensorflow (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.3, 2.6.3, 2.7.1\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.3, 2.6.3, 2.7.1\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.3\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.3\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.6.0; fixed in 2.6.3\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.6.0; fixed in 2.6.3\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.7.0; fixed in 2.7.1\n- tensorflow (PyPI): affected from 2.7.0; fixed in 2.7.1\n- tensorflow-cpu (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.3, 2.6.3\n- tensorflow-cpu (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.3\n- tensorflow-cpu (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 2.5.3\n- tensorflow-cpu (PyPI): affected from 2.6.0; fixed in 2.6.3\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-2022-23563/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23563/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-23563","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23563/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-23563","record":{"aliases":["BIT-tensorflow-2022-23563","GHSA-wc4g-r73w-x8mm","PYSEC-2022-127","PYSEC-2022-72","PYSEC-2026-3253"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"TensorFlow ML library","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in TensorFlow's temporary file creation allows attackers to hijack files, potentially leading to code execution or privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"tensorflow","vendor":"google"}],"cvss":{"score":7.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-367","name":"Time-of-check Time-of-use (TOCTOU) Race Condition"}],"description":"Tensorflow is an Open Source Machine Learning Framework. In multiple places, TensorFlow uses `tempfile.mktemp` to create temporary files. While this is acceptable in testing, in utilities and libraries it is dangerous as a different process can create the file between the check for the filename in `mktemp` and the actual creation of the file by a subsequent operation (a TOC/TOU type of weakness). In several instances, TensorFlow was supposed to actually create a temporary directory instead of a file. This logic bug is hidden away by the `mktemp` function usage. We have patched the issue in several commits, replacing `mktemp` with the safer `mkstemp`/`mkdtemp` functions, according to the usage pattern. Users are advised to upgrade as soon as possible.","ecosystems":["Bitnami","PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Insecure
