It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2024-37142 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2024-37142 is a high-severity path traversal vulnerability in Dell Peripheral Manager, published on 31 Jul 2024. 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-2024-37142 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell Peripheral Manager. 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-2024-37142/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37142/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-37142","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37142/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-37142","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8q6r-7pj6-2j2p"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Dell Peripheral Manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary code and escalate privileges via DLL preloading or symbolic links in Dell Peripheral Manager.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"peripheral_manager","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-427","name":"Uncontrolled Search Path Element"}],"description":"Dell Peripheral Manager, versions prior to 1.7.6, contain an uncontrolled search path element vulnerability.
