Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Electron (affected version not known). It has been rated as critical. Affected by this issue is some unknown functionality. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a sandbox vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-265. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Electron is a framework which lets you write cross-platform desktop applications using JavaScript, HTML and CSS. A Content-Security-Policy that disables eval, specifically setting a `script-src` directive and _not_ providing `unsafe-eval` in that directive, is not respected in renderers that have sandbox disabled. i.e. `sandbox: false` in the `webPreferences` object. This allows usage of methods like `eval()` and `new Function` unexpectedly which can result in an expanded attack surface. This issue only ever affected the 22 and 23 major versions of Electron and has been fixed in the latest versions of those release lines. Specifically, these versions contain the fixes: 22.0.1 and 23.0.0-alpha.2 We recommend all apps upgrade to the latest stable version of Electron. If upgrading isn't possible, this issue can be addressed without upgrading by enabling `sandbox: true` on all renderers.

The weakness was released 09/07/2023 as GHSA-gxh7-wv9q-fwfr. The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2023-23623 since 01/16/2023.
