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-2022-43703 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Arm Compiler 5 (AC5), Arm Compiler for Embedded 6 (AC6), Fast Models (FM), Arm Compiler for Embedded FuSA (ACEF), Arm Development Studio (ADS), Arm Forge (AF), Arm Mobile Studio (AMS), DS-5 Development Studio, Fast Models (FM), GNU Toolchain (GT), Keil MDK (KMDK), Mbed Studio (MS). 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-2022-43703/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-43703/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-43703","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-43703/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-43703","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hpg6-hp9w-vxqp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Arm Compiler and Tools","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute malicious code by placing substitute files in the installer's search path, affecting Arm development tools.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Arm","cpe":[{"product":"arm_development_studio","vendor":"arm"},{"product":"ds_development_studio","vendor":"arm"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"An installer that loads or executes files using an unconstrained search path may be vulnerable to substitute files under control of an attacker being loaded or executed instead of the intended files.","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":"Incomplete verification of installation file signature","id":"CVE-2022-43703","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-43704"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Incomplete verification of installation file signature","id":"CVE-2022-43702"},"products":["Arm Compiler 5 (AC5), Arm Compiler for Embedded 6 (AC6), Fast Models (FM), Arm Compiler for Embedded FuSA (ACEF), Arm Development Studio (ADS), Arm Forge (AF), Arm Mobile Studio (AMS), DS-5 Development Studio, Fast Models (FM), GNU Toolchain (GT), Keil MDK (KMDK), Mbed Studio (MS)"],"published":"2023-07-27","related":[{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element in Arm Development Studio before 2025","id":"CVE-2025-7427","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-07-22"}],"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":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-13","vendors":["Arm Ltd"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute malicious code by placing substitute files in the installer's search path, affecting Arm development tools.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-43703/"}
