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-2025-0046 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: AMD Power Design Manager (PDM) Software Installer for Windows. 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-2025-0046/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-0046/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-0046","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-0046/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-0046","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g5cg-h7gg-4fc6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"AMD Power Design Manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can exploit incorrect directory permissions in AMD Power Design Manager to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"AMD","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"}],"description":"Incorrect directory permissions could allow a local user to escalate their privileges, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in AMD Power Design Manager (PDM) Software Installer for Windows","id":"CVE-2025-0046","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Disclosure of sensitive information in an error message in GoAnywhere prior to version 7.8.0","id":"CVE-2025-0049"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in AMD EPYC™ 4004 Series Processors","id":"CVE-2025-0045"},"products":["AMD Power Design Manager (PDM) Software Installer for Windows"],"published":"2026-08-11","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-12","vendors":["AMD"]},"summary":"A local attacker can exploit incorrect directory permissions in AMD Power Design Manager to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-0046/"}
