# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2022-38638

Advisory: Casdoor arbitrary file write vulnerability
IDs: CVE-2022-38638, GHSA-9vm3-r8gq-cr6x
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2022-38638 (revision 2, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:58 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Critical (CVSS 9.1)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Partial vendor fix; fixed versions by package: github.com/casdoor/casdoor 1.103.1. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- PyPI casdoor: affected <= 1.97.3
- Go github.com/casdoor/casdoor: affected < 1.103.1; fixed in 1.103.1

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- `python -m pip show casdoor`: prints the installed version. Run with the environment that serves production active.
- Go github.com/casdoor/casdoor: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
No complete vendor fix is recorded. Follow the primary source's mitigation guidance and check this record again before closing anything.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on casdoor, github.com/casdoor/casdoor.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.
