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-2023-44281 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell Pair. 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-2023-44281/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-44281/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-44281","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-44281/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-44281","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-2c9m-w3h6-q5pr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Dell Pair Installer","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local low-privilege user can exploit Dell Pair Installer to delete arbitrary files, causing denial of service and privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"pair","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":6.6,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"Dell Pair Installer version prior to 1.2.1 contains an elevation of privilege vulnerability.
