Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Insufficient UI Warning of Dangerous Operations (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-36970)

CWE-ID: CWE-357 - Insufficient UI Warning of Dangerous Operations

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to the user interface fails to provide sufficient indication of the hazard. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted APP file and execute arbitrary code on the target system.


2) Deserialization of Untrusted Data (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28685)

CWE-ID: CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insecure input validation when processing serialized data. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted APP file and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Insecure DLL loading (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28686)

CWE-ID: CWE-427 - Uncontrolled Search Path Element

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to the application loads DLL libraries in an insecure manner. A remote user can place a specially crafted .dll file, trick the victim into opening a APP file and execute arbitrary code on victim's system.


4) Insecure DLL loading (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28687)

CWE-ID: CWE-427 - Uncontrolled Search Path Element

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to the application loads DLL libraries in an insecure manner. A remote user can place a specially crafted .dll file, trick the victim into opening a APP file and execute arbitrary code on victim's system.


5) Insecure DLL loading (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-28688)

CWE-ID: CWE-427 - Uncontrolled Search Path Element

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to the application loads DLL libraries in an insecure manner. A remote user can place a specially crafted .dll file, trick the victim into opening a APP file and execute arbitrary code on victim's system.


6) XML External Entity injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-36969)

CWE-ID: CWE-611 - Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference ('XXE')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:H/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied XML input within the LoadImportedLibraries method. A remote attacker can trick a victim to open a specially crafted file and view contents of arbitrary files on the system or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
