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-2026-14479 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Autodesk Installer. 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-2026-14479/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-14479/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-14479","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-14479/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-14479","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g638-6x55-m5q5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Autodesk Installer","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A malicious input in the Autodesk Installer IPC parser causes an out-of-range substring operation, crashing the SYSTEM service and causing denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"autodesk","cpe":[{"product":"installer","vendor":"autodesk"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1285","name":"Improper Validation of Specified Index, Position, or Offset in Input"}],"description":"A maliciously crafted input, when processed by the Autodesk Installer IPC frame parser, may trigger improper validation of an input-specified position or offset, resulting in an out-of-range substring operation.
