3) Untrusted search path

EUVDB-ID: #VU77601

Risk: Low

CVSSv4.0: 5.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear]

CVE-ID: CVE-2023-30585

CWE-ID: CWE-426 - Untrusted Search Path

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to the way Node.js (.msi version) installation process handles a missing %USERPROFILE% environment variable. If the variable is not set, the .msi installer will try to include a current working directory into the search path and will libraries in an unsafe manner. A local user can place a malicious file on the victim's system and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.

The vulnerability affects Windows installators only.
