F-Secure Linux Security 32 F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper, published on 23 Sep 2022. 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-2022-28886 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: All F-Secure and WithSecure Endpoint Protection products for Windows running 32 bit operating system.  F-Secure Linux Security 32 F-Secure Internet Gatekeeper. 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-2022-28886/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-28886/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-28886","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-28886/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-28886","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6v9f-3xw7-vjj9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Endpoint Protection","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service by triggering an infinite loop in the scanning engine when processing malicious PE files.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"F-SecureUS","cpe":[{"product":"cloud_protection_for_salesforce","vendor":"f-secure"},{"product":"collaboration_protection","vendor":"f-secure"},{"product":"elements_endpoint_protection","vendor":"f-secure"},{"product":"internet_gatekeeper","vendor":"f-secure"},{"product":"linux_security","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":[{"id":"CWE-835","name":"Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition"}],"description":"A Denial-of-Service vulnerability was discovered in the F-Secure and WithSecure products where aerdl.so/aerdl.dll may go into an infinite loop when unpacking PE files.
