An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-37450 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum (Go): affected all versions up to 1.10.21; no fix listed\n- github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum (Go): affected all versions up to 1.10.21; no fix listed\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-2022-37450/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-37450/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-37450","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-37450/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-37450","record":{"aliases":["CLEANSTART-2024-DV35660","GHSA-rqmg-hrg4-fm69"],"analysis":{"component_type":"other","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_modify","other"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ethereum client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can manipulate time-difference values to replace main-chain blocks and increase mining rewards, affecting Ethereum network integrity.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"business_logic"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"go_ethereum","vendor":"ethereum"}],"cvss":{"score":5.9,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Go Ethereum (aka geth) through 1.10.21 allows attackers to increase rewards by mining blocks in certain situations, and using a manipulation of time-difference values to achieve replacement of main-chain blocks, aka Riskless Uncle Making (RUM), as exploited in the wild in 2020 through 2022.","ecosystems":["Go"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Go Ethereum allows attackers to use manipulation of time-difference values to achieve replacement of main-chain blocks","id":"CVE-2022-37450","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Go","product":null,"products":[],"type":"business_logic","year":"2022"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-37451"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.10.21"],"package":"github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-rqmg-hrg4-fm69"},{"ecosystem":"Go","fixed":[],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":["1.10.21"],"package":"github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum","purl":"pkg:golang/github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum","source":"GHSA-rqmg-hrg4-fm69"}],"prev":{"headline":"DO NOT USE THIS CANDIDATE NUMBER.","id":"CVE-2022-37449"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2022-08-05","related":[{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Go Ethereum affected by DoS via malicious p2p message","id":"CVE-2026-26314","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-19"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"go-ethereum vulnerable to denial of service via crafted GraphQL query","id":"CVE-2023-42319","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-10-18"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service via malicious p2p message in go-ethereum","id":"CVE-2023-40591","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-06"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in go-ethereum","id":"CVE-2021-42219","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-16"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of Service in Go-Ethereum","id":"CVE-2022-23327","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-04"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of Service in Go-Ethereum","id":"CVE-2022-23328","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-04"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-20421","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-24"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-03","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can manipulate time-difference values to replace main-chain blocks and increase mining rewards, affecting Ethereum network integrity.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-37450/"}
