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-2023-27908 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Autodesk installer. 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-2023-27908/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-27908/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-27908","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-27908/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-27908","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qxcq-vfxx-5hxp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Autodesk installer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can escalate privileges by forcing the Autodesk installer to write beyond allocated boundaries when parsing malicious DLL files.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"autodesk","cpe":[{"product":"installer","vendor":"autodesk"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","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":"A maliciously crafted DLL file can be forced to write beyond allocated boundaries in the Autodesk installer when parsing the DLL files and could lead to a Privilege Escalation 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":"Privilege escalation in Autodesk installer","id":"CVE-2023-27908","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Autodesk FBX SDK","id":"CVE-2023-27909"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Autodesk Maya USD Plugin","id":"CVE-2023-27907"},"products":["Autodesk installer"],"published":"2023-06-23","related":[{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Incorrect Permission Assignment in Autodesk Installer Named Pipes","id":"CVE-2026-14478","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-12"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege Escalation Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-10885","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-11-06"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege Ecalation due to Untrusted Search Path Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-5335","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-06-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Autodesk ADP Desktop SDK Privilege Escalation Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-9500","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-15"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Denial of Service in Autodesk Installer IPC Channel","id":"CVE-2026-14479","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-12"}],"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-12-05","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Attackers can escalate privileges by forcing the Autodesk installer to write beyond allocated boundaries when parsing malicious DLL files.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-27908/"}
