An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-28877 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: All F-Secure and WithSecure Endpoint Protection Products 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-2022-28877/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-28877/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-28877","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-28877/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-28877","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cc4m-5453-r7jw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows endpoint protection","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Local attackers with code execution rights can delete arbitrary files to bypass security protections and escalate privileges on F-Secure and WithSecure Windows endpoint products.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"F-SecureUS","cpe":[{"product":"elements_endpoint_protection","vendor":"f-secure"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"This vulnerability allows local user to delete arbitrary file in the system and bypassing security protection which can be abused for local privilege escalation on affected F-Secure \u0026 WithSecure windows endpoint products.
