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-2022-25943 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: WPS Office for Windows. 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-2022-25943/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-25943/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-25943","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-25943/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-25943","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q9cp-6576-r6r7"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WPS Office for Windows","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Improper ACL configuration in the WPS Office installer allows local attackers to escalate privileges by modifying the service program directory.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"wps_office","vendor":"kingsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"}],"description":"The installer of WPS Office for Windows versions prior to v11.2.0.10258 fails to configure properly the ACL for the directory where the service program is installed.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2021-07-09","github_poc":2,"max_poc_stars":58,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2021-07-09T23:34:57Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/HadiMed/KINGSOFT-WPS-Office-LPE","stars":58,"title":"CVE-2022-25943"},{"date":"2022-04-22T08:30:55Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/webraybtl/CVE-2022-25943","stars":6,"title":"CVE-2022-25943"}],"tier":"poc_unverified"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in WPS Office for Windows","id":"CVE-2022-25943","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in BIG-IP (Advanced WAF, APM, ASM)","id":"CVE-2022-25946"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in libhdf5","id":"CVE-2022-25942"},"products":["WPS Office for Windows"],"published":"2022-03-09","related":[{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Kingsoft WPS Office Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2024-7262","kev_date_added":"2024-09-03","published":"2024-08-15"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Arbitrary Code Execution in WPS Office","id":"CVE-2024-7263","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-15"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in WPS Office","id":"CVE-2023-31275","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-27"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Command injection in WPS Office","id":"CVE-2023-32548","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-13"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Other in The installer of WPS Office","id":"CVE-2022-25969","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Other in The installer of WPS Office","id":"CVE-2022-26081","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-17"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["WPS Office Software"]},"summary":"Improper ACL configuration in the WPS Office installer allows local attackers to escalate privileges by modifying the service program directory.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-25943/"}
