It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2022-46330 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2022-46330 is a high-severity vulnerability in Installers generated by Squirrel.Windows, published on 21 Dec 2022. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-46330 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Installers generated by Squirrel.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-2022-46330/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-46330/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-46330","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-46330/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-46330","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hg2g-2j5v-39rv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows installer library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code via DLL hijacking in Squirrel.Windows installers due to insecure DLL search paths.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"other"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"jpcert","cpe":[{"product":"squirrel.windows","vendor":"squirrel.windows_project"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"Squirrel.Windows is both a toolset and a library that provides installation and update functionality for Windows desktop applications.
