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-2026-43616 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: horsicq DIE-engine. 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-2026-43616/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43616/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-43616","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-43616/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-43616","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-93m8-884p-3fww"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Detect-It-Easy","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can write arbitrary files outside the extraction directory via malicious archives, potentially achieving persistent code execution by overwriting startup scripts.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"VulnCheck","cpe":[{"product":"detect-it-easy","vendor":"horsicq"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-23","name":"Relative Path Traversal"}],"description":"Detect-It-Easy prior to 3.21 contains a path traversal vulnerability that allows attackers to write arbitrary files to the filesystem by crafting malicious archive entries with relative traversal sequences or absolute paths.
