Summary

Details

Jupyter Core is a package for the core common functionality of Jupyter projects. When using Jupyter Core prior to version 5.8.0 on Windows, the shared %PROGRAMDATA% directory is searched for configuration files (SYSTEM_CONFIG_PATH and SYSTEM_JUPYTER_PATH), which may allow users to create configuration files affecting other users. Only shared Windows systems with multiple users and unprotected %PROGRAMDATA% are affected. Users should upgrade to Jupyter Core version 5.8.0 or later to receive a patch. Some other mitigations are available. As administrator, modify the permissions on the %PROGRAMDATA% directory so it is not writable by unauthorized users; or as administrator, create the %PROGRAMDATA%\jupyter directory with appropriately restrictive permissions; or as user or administrator, set the %PROGRAMDATA% environment variable to a directory with appropriately restrictive permissions (e.g. controlled by administrators or the current user).

Title

Jupyter Core on Windows Has Uncontrolled Search Path Element Local Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

Summary

Jupyter Core is a package for the core common functionality of Jupyter projects. When using Jupyter Core prior to version 5.8.0 on Windows, the shared `%PROGRAMDATA%` directory is searched for configuration files (`SYSTEM_CONFIG_PATH` and `SYSTEM_JUPYTER_PATH`), which may allow users to create configuration files affecting other users. Only shared Windows systems with multiple users and unprotected `%PROGRAMDATA%` are affected. Users should upgrade to Jupyter Core version 5.8.0 or later to receive a patch. Some other mitigations are available. As administrator, modify the permissions on the `%PROGRAMDATA%` directory so it is not writable by unauthorized users; or as administrator, create the `%PROGRAMDATA%\jupyter` directory with appropriately restrictive permissions; or as user or administrator, set the `%PROGRAMDATA%` environment variable to a directory with appropriately restrictive permissions (e.g. controlled by administrators _or_ the current user).

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
