| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
native-opencv versions (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue arises from
native-opencv downloading binary resources over HTTP, making it susceptible to man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. This could potentially lead to remote code execution (RCE) if an attacker intercepts and alters the downloaded resources. In scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, they can replace the executable with a malicious one, resulting in code execution on the system running native-opencv.Recommendations
To mitigate this issue, consider avoiding the use of
native-opencv and opt for a different package if available.
As a temporary measure, reduce the risk of exploitation by avoiding the installation of this package while connected to a public network.
If the package is installed on a private network, ensure that network security is maintained to prevent unauthorized access.Fix
