Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
The installer of INZONE Hub 1.0.10.3 to 1.0.17.0 contains an issue with the DLL search path, which may lead to insecurely loading Dynamic Link Libraries. As a result, arbitrary code may be executed with the privilege of the user invoking the installer.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

The INZONE Hub installer versions 1.0.10.3 through 1.0.17.0 contains a DLL search path vulnerability (DLL hijacking). The installer insecurely loads Dynamic Link Libraries, potentially allowing an attacker to place a malicious DLL in a location where the installer will load it, resulting in arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user running the installer.

MitigationUntil an official vendor patch is released, avoid running the INZONE Hub installer from directories with untrusted content, and ensure the installer is run from a trusted location. Users should update to a patched version once available.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Locate INZONE Hub installation
    Check for INZONE Hub in the Windows Start Menu, or navigate to typical installation directories such as C:\Program Files\Sony\INZONE Hub or C:\Program Files (x86)\Sony\INZONE Hub
    Affected if INZONE Hub is not found on the system (not affected)
  2. Identify installed version via file properties
    Right-click the INZONE Hub executable (INZONE Hub.exe) in the installation folder, select Properties, and view the File version on the Details tab
    Affected if The displayed version falls within the range 1.0.10.3 to 1.0.17.0 inclusive
  3. Identify version via Windows Programs and Features
    Open Control Panel > Programs and Features (or Settings > Apps), locate INZONE Hub in the list, and note the version shown
    Affected if The listed version falls within the range 1.0.10.3 to 1.0.17.0 inclusive
  4. Check installer version if installer file is available
    If you have the INZONE Hub installer file (.exe), right-click it, select Properties, and view the Details tab for the version information
    Affected if The installer version falls within the range 1.0.10.3 to 1.0.17.0 inclusive

A user is affected if the installed INZONE Hub application or the installer they intend to use has a version between 1.0.10.3 and 1.0.17.0 inclusive.
