      <title>CVE-2026-71858 — Notepad++: shortcuts.xml Macro HMAC Bypass Enables Conditional Elevated Command Execution</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-71858</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; notepad-plus-plus&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Notepad++ is a free and open-source source code editor. Prior to 8.9.7, macros loaded from an attacker-controlled shortcuts.xml bypass the HMAC validation applied to UserDefinedCommands and can invoke Scintilla actions and the internal Open in Default Viewer command in an elevated Notepad++ process, allowing protected file modification and conditional elevated command execution when a local attacker influences settingsDir and a user triggers the macro. This issue is fixed in version 8.9.7.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
