Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-31169 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories SEL-5030 acSELerator QuickSet Software. 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-2023-31169/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-31169/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-31169","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-31169/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-31169","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-gpxj-9prg-35ww"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"SEL acSELerator QuickSet","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can embed malicious instructions in Unicode encoding to execute code when an authorized operator interacts with the software.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"SEL","cpe":[{"product":"sel-5030_acselerator_quickset","vendor":"selinc"}],"cvss":{"score":4.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-755","name":"Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions"},{"id":"CWE-176","name":"Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding"}],"description":"An Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding vulnerability in the Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories SEL-5030 acSELerator QuickSet Software could allow an attacker to embed instructions that could be executed by an authorized device operator.\n\nSee Instruction Manual Appendix A and Appendix E dated 20230615 for more details.\nThis issue affects SEL-5030 acSELerator QuickSet Software: through 7.1.3.0.","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":"Improper Handling of Unicode Encoding","id":"CVE-2023-31169","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere","id":"CVE-2023-31170"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere","id":"CVE-2023-31168"},"products":["SEL-5030 acSELerator QuickSet Software"],"published":"2023-08-31","related":[{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere","id":"CVE-2023-31170","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-31"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')","id":"CVE-2023-31171","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-31"},{"cvss_score":5.9,"headline":"Incomplete Filtering of Special Elements","id":"CVE-2023-31172","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-31"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere","id":"CVE-2023-31168","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-08-31"}],"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-27","vendors":["Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories"]},"summary":"An attacker can embed malicious instructions in Unicode encoding to execute code when an authorized operator interacts with the software.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-31169/"}
