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-2023-39520 exists.\n\nAffected product: cryptomator. 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-2023-39520/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-39520/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-39520","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-39520/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-39520","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-62gx-54j7-mjh3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cryptomator desktop app","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges to SYSTEM via the MSI repair function in Cryptomator, which loads user PowerShell profiles.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"cryptomator","vendor":"cryptomator"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"Cryptomator encrypts data being stored on cloud infrastructure. The MSI installer provided on the homepage for Cryptomator version 1.9.2 allows local privilege escalation for low privileged users, via the `repair` function. The problem occurs as the repair function of the MSI is spawning an SYSTEM Powershell without the `-NoProfile` parameter. Therefore the profile of the user starting the repair will be loaded. Version 1.9.3 contains a fix for this issue. Adding a `-NoProfile` to the powershell is a possible workaround.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Cryptomator vulnerable to Local Elevation of Privileges","id":"CVE-2023-39520","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Tuleap vulnerable to Cross-site Scripting on the success message of a kanban deletion","id":"CVE-2023-39521"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"CloudExplorer Lite sensitive information leakage vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-39519"},"products":["cryptomator"],"published":"2023-08-07","related":[{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Cryptomator: Hub unlocking accepts plaintext HTTP and unvalidated endpoint schemes","id":"CVE-2026-32309","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-20"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2022-25366","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-19"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Cryptomator: Tampered vault configuration allows MITM attack on Hub API","id":"CVE-2026-32303","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-20"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Cryptomator for Android: Tampered vault configuration allows MITM attack on Hub API","id":"CVE-2026-32317","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-20"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Cryptomator for IOS: Tampered vault configuration allows MITM attack on Hub API","id":"CVE-2026-32318","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-03-20"},{"cvss_score":7,"headline":"Cryptomator's MSI installer allows local privilege escalation","id":"CVE-2023-37907","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-25"}],"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":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-10-03","vendors":["cryptomator"]},"summary":"Local attackers can escalate privileges to SYSTEM via the MSI repair function in Cryptomator, which loads user PowerShell profiles.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-39520/"}
