Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2022-40238 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2022-40238 is a high-severity unsafe deserialization vulnerability in CERT/CC VINCE - The Vulnerability Information and Coordination Environment, published on 26 Oct 2022. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-40238 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: CERT/CC VINCE - The Vulnerability Information and Coordination Environment. 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-2022-40238/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40238/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-40238","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40238/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-40238","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9gw9-mrm5-m5x9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vulnerability coordination platform","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An authenticated attacker can inject arbitrary pickle objects into user profiles, leading to remote code execution on the server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"certcc","cpe":[{"product":"vince","vendor":"cert"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"A Remote Code Injection vulnerability exists in CERT software prior to version 1.50.5.
