An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-24140 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2022-24140/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24140/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-24140","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24140/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-24140","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hc5p-pw4x-wpq8"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"IOBit system utilities","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can intercept unencrypted update requests to inject malicious code, achieving remote code execution with admin privileges on affected IOBit desktop applications.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"advanced_system_care","vendor":"iobit"},{"product":"driver_booster","vendor":"iobit"},{"product":"itop_screen_recorder","vendor":"iobit"},{"product":"itop_screenshot","vendor":"iobit"},{"product":"itop_vpn","vendor":"iobit"}],"cvss":{"score":6.6,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-494","name":"Download of Code Without Integrity Check"}],"description":"IOBit Advanced System Care 15, iTop Screen Recorder 2.1, iTop VPN 3.2, Driver Booster 9, and iTop Screenshot sends HTTP requests in their update procedure in order to download a config file.
