An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-37182 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- mattermost-desktop (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 5.8.0\n- mattermost-desktop (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 5.8.0\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-2024-37182/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37182/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-37182","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37182/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-37182","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hvxg-77mg-vrvp"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Mattermost Desktop App","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can force victims to run arbitrary programs via custom URI schemes due to missing permission prompts in the Mattermost Desktop App.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Mattermost","cpe":[{"product":"mattermost_desktop","vendor":"mattermost"}],"cvss":{"score":4.7,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-693","name":"Protection Mechanism Failure"}],"description":"Mattermost Desktop App versions \u003c=5.7.0 fail to correctly prompt for permission when opening external URLs which allows a remote attacker to force a victim over the Internet to run arbitrary programs on the victim's system via custom URI schemes.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Lack of permissions prompting when opening external URLs","id":"CVE-2024-37182","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2024"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Westermo L210-F2G Lynx Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information","id":"CVE-2024-37183"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["5.8.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"mattermost-desktop","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-hvxg-77mg-vrvp"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["5.8.0"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"mattermost-desktop","purl":"pkg:npm/mattermost-desktop","source":"GHSA-hvxg-77mg-vrvp"}],"prev":{"headline":"Race condition in Intel(R) Neural Compressor software","id":"CVE-2024-37181"},"products":["Mattermost"],"published":"2024-06-14","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-11064","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-19"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-20856","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-19"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-20861","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-19"},{"cvss_score":7.6,"headline":"Arbitrary application execution via unvalidated server-controlled URLs in Help menu","id":"CVE-2026-1046","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-16"},{"cvss_score":7.3,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-14456","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-06-19"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Posting a malicious markdown image crashes the Mattermost Desktop App","id":"CVE-2026-8075","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-17"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Overly long URLs crash the Mattermost Desktop App","id":"CVE-2026-8683","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-06-15"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"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":"2024-08-02","vendors":["Mattermost"]},"summary":"Attackers can force victims to run arbitrary programs via custom URI schemes due to missing permission prompts in the Mattermost Desktop App.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-37182/"}
