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-2026-15431 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: HP Support Assistant. 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-2026-15431/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15431/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-15431","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-15431/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-15431","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-jm25-2q7v-phxv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"HP Support Assistant","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local attacker can escalate privileges in HP Support Assistant due to insufficient access controls, requiring an upgrade to mitigate.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"hp","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1220","name":"Insufficient Granularity of Access Control"}],"description":"A potential security vulnerability has been identified in the HP Support\n Assistant for versions prior to 9.53.2.0.
