It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2022-38396 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2022-38396 is a high-severity vulnerability in Microsoft Windows 10 1507, published on 3 Feb 2023. 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-2022-38396 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 10 1507. 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-2022-38396/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-38396/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-38396","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-38396/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-38396","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-4fqc-92ph-66xx"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"HP factory images","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can escalate privileges by executing files outside restricted paths in HP factory preinstalled Windows 10 images.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hp","cpe":[{"product":"windows_10_1507","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_1511","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_1607","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_1703","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_1709","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_1803","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_1809","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_1909","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_2004","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_10_20h2","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"HP Factory Preinstalled Images on certain systems that shipped with Windows 10 versions 20H2 and earlier OS versions might allow escalation of privilege via execution of certain files outside the restricted path.
