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-2022-27638 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Intel(R) Advanced Link Analyzer Pro and Standard edition. 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-2022-27638/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27638/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-27638","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27638/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-27638","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-7g6h-cv4c-gw4q"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Intel Link Analyzer","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges in Intel Advanced Link Analyzer due to an uncontrolled search path element.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"intel","cpe":[{"product":"advanced_link_analyzer","vendor":"intel"}],"cvss":{"score":6.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"Uncontrolled search path element in the Intel(R) Advanced Link Analyzer Pro before version 22.2 and Standard edition software before version 22.1.1 STD may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable escalation of privilege via local access.","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":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Advanced Link Analyzer Pro and Standard edition","id":"CVE-2022-27638","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) XMM(TM) 7560 Modem software","id":"CVE-2022-27639"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in PukiWiki","id":"CVE-2022-27637"},"products":["Intel(R) Advanced Link Analyzer Pro and Standard edition"],"published":"2022-11-11","related":[{"cvss_score":6.7,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Intel(R) Advanced Link Analyzer Standard Edition software installers","id":"CVE-2023-27505","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-11"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An authenticated local user can escalate privileges in Intel Advanced Link Analyzer due to an uncontrolled search path element.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-27638/"}
