It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-52837 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Trend Micro Password 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-2025-52837/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-52837/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-52837","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-52837/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-52837","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-v338-m87c-mjx4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Password Manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Attackers can exploit symbolic links to delete arbitrary files and escalate privileges in Trend Micro Password Manager.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"trendmicro","cpe":[{"product":"password_manager","vendor":"trendmicro"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-59","name":"Improper Link Resolution Before File Access"},{"id":"CWE-64","name":"Windows Shortcut Following (.LNK)"}],"description":"Trend Micro Password Manager (Consumer) version 5.8.0.1327 and below is vulnerable to a Link Following Privilege Escalation Vulnerability that could allow an attacker the opportunity to abuse symbolic links and other methods to delete any file/folder and achieve privilege escalation.","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 Trend Micro Password Manager","id":"CVE-2025-52837","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Laundry 2.3.0 - Account Takeover via CSRF","id":"CVE-2025-52841"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"WordPress The E-Commerce ERP \u003c= 2.1.1.3 - Privilege Escalation Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2025-52836"},"products":["Trend Micro Password Manager"],"published":"2025-07-10","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-3987","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2016-04-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Trend Micro Password Manager","id":"CVE-2021-32462","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-08"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Other in Trend Micro Password Manager","id":"CVE-2022-28394","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-26"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Trend Micro Password Manager","id":"CVE-2022-30523","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-05-16"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Path traversal in Trend Micro Password Manager","id":"CVE-2022-26337","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-03-08"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Integer overflow in Trend Micro Password Manager","id":"CVE-2021-32461","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-07-08"}],"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":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-02-26","vendors":["Trend Micro, Inc."]},"summary":"Attackers can exploit symbolic links to delete arbitrary files and escalate privileges in Trend Micro Password Manager.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-52837/"}
