It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2022-23973 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2022-23973 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in ASUS RT-AX56U, published on 7 Apr 2022. 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-2022-23973 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: ASUS RT-AX56U. 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-2022-23973/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23973/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-23973","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-23973/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-23973","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v6gh-mj92-4mvj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ASUS router","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An unauthenticated LAN attacker can execute arbitrary code or disrupt service via a stack-based buffer overflow in the user profile configuration function.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"twcert","cpe":[{"product":"rt-ax56u_firmware","vendor":"asus"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"ASUS RT-AX56U’s user profile configuration function is vulnerable to stack-based buffer overflow due to insufficient validation for parameter length.
