An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2025-59374 in the wild since at least 17 Dec 2025.\n\nAffected product: ASUS live update. 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-2025-59374/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-59374/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-59374","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-59374/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-59374","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f3f3-7gxj-g763"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"end_of_life","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ASUS Live Update client","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Compromised ASUS Live Update client builds allowed attackers to execute unintended actions on targeted devices via supply chain tampering.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"supply_chain"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ASUS","cpe":[{"product":"live_update","vendor":"asus"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-506","name":"Embedded Malicious Code"}],"description":"\"UNSUPPORTED WHEN ASSIGNED\" Certain versions of the ASUS Live Update client were distributed with unauthorized modifications introduced through a supply chain compromise. The modified builds could cause devices meeting specific targeting conditions to perform unintended actions.
