The installer of WPS Office, published on 17 Mar 2022. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-25969 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: KINGSOFT JAPAN, INC. The installer of WPS Office. 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-2022-25969/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-25969/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-25969","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-25969/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-25969","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-px53-7qp6-v8p9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WPS Office installer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary code by exploiting insecure DLL loading in the WPS Office installer, requiring user interaction to run the installer.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"other"},"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:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"The installer of WPS Office Version 10.8.0.6186 insecurely load VERSION.DLL (or some other DLLs), allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privilege of the user invoking the installer.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Other in The installer of WPS Office","id":"CVE-2022-25969","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"other","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in libhdf5","id":"CVE-2022-25972"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"This candidate was in a CNA pool that was not assigned to any issues during 2022.","id":"CVE-2022-25968"},"products":["The installer of WPS Office"],"published":"2022-03-17","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-2022-26081","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-17"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in WPS Office for Windows","id":"CVE-2022-25943","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-09"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["KINGSOFT JAPAN, INC."]},"summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary code by exploiting insecure DLL loading in the WPS Office installer, requiring user interaction to run the installer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-25969/"}
