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-2025-61970 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: AMD Vitis™ Embedded Single File Download (SFD) 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-2025-61970/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-61970/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-61970","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-61970/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-61970","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6rv5-3vh8-6642"],"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 Vitis IDE","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Weak installation permissions allow low-privileged users to hijack binaries and execute arbitrary code on Windows systems.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"AMD","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:A/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:L/SI:L/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"},{"id":"CWE-276","name":"Incorrect Default Permissions"}],"description":"Weak permissions in the Vitis™ Unified installation path on local Windows machines could allow a low-privileged user to create arbitrary code, potentially resulting in binary hijacking.","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 Vitis™ Embedded Single File Download (SFD) for Windows","id":"CVE-2025-61970","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":"Security feature bypass in AMD EPYC™ 7003 Series Processors","id":"CVE-2025-61971"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Privilege escalation in AMD µProf","id":"CVE-2025-61969"},"products":["Vitis™ Embedded Single File Download (SFD) 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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-12","vendors":["AMD"]},"summary":"Weak installation permissions allow low-privileged users to hijack binaries and execute arbitrary code on Windows systems.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-61970/"}
