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: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2022-48303 exists.\n\nAffected product: Fedoraproject Fedora. 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-2022-48303/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-48303/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-48303","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-48303/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-48303","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2022-48303","ALSA-2023:0842","ALSA-2023:0959","AZL-37145","CLSA-2023-1677783720","CLSA-2023-1677783889","CLSA-2023-1677783967","CLSA-2023-1677791921","DEBIAN-CVE-2022-48303","GHSA-h2v4-4v4p-2qvc","JLSEC-2026-184","MGASA-2023-0079","OESA-2023-1089","OESA-2023-1103","OESA-2023-1104","OESA-2023-1106","RHSA-2023:0842","RHSA-2023:0959","RHSA-2023:5610","RLSA-2023:0842","RLSA-2023:0959","SUSE-SU-2023:0441-1","SUSE-SU-2023:0463-1","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-48303","USN-5900-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:12744-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"GNU Tar utility","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A one-byte out-of-bounds read in GNU Tar can cause use of uninitialized memory, potentially leading to denial of service when processing crafted V7 archives.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"fedora","vendor":"fedoraproject"},{"product":"tar","vendor":"gnu"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"GNU Tar through 1.34 has a one-byte out-of-bounds read that results in use of uninitialized memory for a conditional jump.
