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-2022-24420 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2022-24420 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Dell Alienware Area 51m R2 Firmware, published on 11 Mar 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-2022-24420 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell Alienware Area 51m R2 Firmware. 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-2022-24420/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24420/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-24420","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-24420/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-24420","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qfv3-jjpv-58qw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"hardware_firmware","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Dell BIOS","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit improper input validation in Dell BIOS to execute arbitrary code during System Management Mode.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"alienware_13_r3_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_15_r3_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_15_r4_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_17_r4_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_17_r5_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_area_51m_r1_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_area_51m_r2_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_aurora_r8_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_m15_r2_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_m15_r3_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_m15_r4_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_m17_r2_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_m17_r3_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_m17_r4_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_x15_r1_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"alienware_x17_r1_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"edge_gateway_3000_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"edge_gateway_5000_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"edge_gateway_5100_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"embedded_box_pc_3000_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"embedded_box_pc_5000_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_14_3473_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_15_3573_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_15_5566_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3277_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3465_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3477_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3482_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3502_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3510_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3565_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3582_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"inspiron_3782_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"latitude_3379_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_14_5468_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_15_5568_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_3267_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_3268_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_3572_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_3582_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_3660_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_3667_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_3668_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"vostro_3669_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"wyse_7040_thin_client_firmware","vendor":"dell"},{"product":"xps_8930_firmware","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":8.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-119","name":"Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer"}],"description":"Dell BIOS contains an improper input validation vulnerability.
