Mist · Mist · CVE-2022-39245
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Mist versions prior to 0.9.5
**Description**
Mist is the command-line interface for the makedeb Package Repository. A user-provided `sudo` binary via the `PATH` variable can allow a local user to run arbitrary commands on the user's system with root permissions.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 0.9.5, update to version 0.9.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the `sudo` binary via the `PATH` variable to minimize the risk of exploitation.
