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-2022-44704 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows Sysmon. 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-2022-44704/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-44704/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-44704","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-44704/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-44704","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rj66-5f45-62mp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows Sysmon","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can exploit a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows Sysmon to elevate privileges on the affected system.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_sysmon","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Microsoft Windows System Monitor (Sysmon) Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","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":"Microsoft Windows System Monitor (Sysmon) Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-44704","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2022"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Windows Kernel Denial of Service Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-44707"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Windows Terminal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-44702"},"products":["Windows Sysmon"],"published":"2022-12-13","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"SysInternals Sysmon for Windows Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-29343","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-05-09"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows System Monitor (Sysmon) Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2022-41120","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-11-09"}],"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":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-07-22","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"An attacker can exploit a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows Sysmon to elevate privileges on the affected system.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-44704/"}
