It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2025-43596 exists.\n\nAffected product: MSP360 Backup. 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-2025-43596/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-43596/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-43596","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-43596/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-43596","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-9r52-rcmc-x62w"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows backup software","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A low-privileged user can escalate to SYSTEM privileges via insecure file permissions in MSP360 Backup for Windows.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"cisa-cg","cpe":[{"product":"backup","vendor":"msp360"}],"cvss":{"score":8.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"}],"description":"An insecure file system permissions vulnerability in MSP360 Backup 8.0 allows a low privileged user to execute commands with SYSTEM level privileges using a specially crafted file with an arbitrary file backup target.
