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-2022-40725 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: PingID Desktop 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-2022-40725/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40725/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-40725","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40725/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-40725","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6mjq-9p26-vg33"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PingID Desktop","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can bypass the PIN attempt lockout mechanism in PingID Desktop, allowing unlimited attempts to guess the PIN.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Ping Identity","cpe":[{"product":"desktop","vendor":"pingidentity"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-306","name":"Missing Authentication for Critical Functionality"},{"id":"CWE-288","name":"Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel"}],"description":"PingID Desktop prior to the latest released version 1.7.4 contains a vulnerability that can be exploited to bypass the maximum PIN attempts permitted before the time-based lockout is activated.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"PingID Desktop PIN attempt lockout bypass.","id":"CVE-2022-40725","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Null dereference in Windows","id":"CVE-2022-40732"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-Site Request Forgery on PingFederate Local Identity Profiles Endpoint.","id":"CVE-2022-40724"},"products":["PingID Desktop for Windows","PingID Desktop for macOS"],"published":"2023-04-25","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-04","vendors":["Ping Identity"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass the PIN attempt lockout mechanism in PingID Desktop, allowing unlimited attempts to guess the PIN.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-40725/"}
