Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-40433 exists.\n\nAffected product: n/a. 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-2024-40433/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40433/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-40433","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40433/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-40433","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-242w-qmqc-xqm3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"mobile_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"WeChat mobile app","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can escalate privileges in the WeChat mobile application by exploiting insecure permissions in the web-view component.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"wechat","vendor":"tencent"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-266","name":"Incorrect Privilege Assignment"}],"description":"Insecure Permissions vulnerability in Tencent wechat v.8.0.37 allows an attacker to escalate privileges via the web-view component.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-40433","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Server-side request forgery in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-40441"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2024-40432"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2024-07-26","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in WeChat","id":"CVE-2020-27874","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-02-10"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-40180","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-07-26"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Information disclosure in WeChat","id":"CVE-2021-27247","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-14"},{"cvss_score":5.5,"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-11419","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-05-14"},{"cvss_score":4.3,"headline":"Open redirect in WeChat","id":"CVE-2019-17151","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-01-07"}],"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-02","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"An attacker can escalate privileges in the WeChat mobile application by exploiting insecure permissions in the web-view component.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40433/"}
