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-2022-26526 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- miniconda (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 4.11.0\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-2022-26526/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-26526/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-26526","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-26526/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-26526","record":{"aliases":["BIT-miniconda-2022-26526","GHSA-4qx4-v2q7-m2gp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"configuration_change","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Anaconda distribution","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges by placing malicious files in a world-writable directory added to the system PATH during specific non-default installations.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"anaconda3","vendor":"anaconda"},{"product":"miniconda3","vendor":"conda"}],"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-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"Anaconda Anaconda3 (Anaconda Distribution) through 2021.11.0.0 and Miniconda3 through 4.11.0.0 can create a world-writable directory under %PROGRAMDATA% and place that directory into the system PATH environment variable.
