It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2023-33148 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft 365 Apps. 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-2023-33148/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-33148/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-33148","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-33148/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-33148","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cr38-7wwg-698r"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft Office","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can exploit a path traversal flaw in Microsoft Office to escalate privileges on affected systems.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"365_apps","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"office","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"office_long_term_servicing_channel","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":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"}],"description":"Microsoft Office Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2023-07-20","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2023-07-20","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"51609","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Office 365 Version 18.2305.1222.0 - Elevation of Privilege + RCE."}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Microsoft Office Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-33148","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:365_apps","products":["microsoft:365_apps","microsoft:office","microsoft:office_long_term_servicing_channel"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Microsoft Office Graphics Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-33149"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Microsoft Office Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-33146"},"products":["Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise","Microsoft Office 2013 Click-to-Run (C2R)","Microsoft Office 2019","Microsoft Office LTSC 2021"],"published":"2023-07-11","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Outlook Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2024-21413","kev_date_added":"2025-02-06","published":"2024-02-13"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office Outlook Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2023-23397","kev_date_added":"2023-03-14","published":"2023-03-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Project Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-38189","kev_date_added":"2024-08-13","published":"2024-08-13"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Outlook Security Feature Bypass","id":"CVE-2023-35311","kev_date_added":"2023-07-11","published":"2023-07-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office Word Reliance on Untrusted Inputs in a Security Decision","id":"CVE-2026-21514","kev_date_added":"2026-02-10","published":"2026-02-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office Security Feature Bypass","id":"CVE-2026-21509","kev_date_added":"2026-01-26","published":"2026-01-26"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Excel Security Feature Bypass","id":"CVE-2021-42292","kev_date_added":"2021-11-17","published":"2021-11-10"}],"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)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-28","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit a path traversal flaw in Microsoft Office to escalate privileges on affected systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-33148/"}
