A local attacker with write permissions on this file can replace the \u2018bin/cygwin1.dll\u2019 library contained within it with a malicious library. When the victim opens a Local Shell session or uses a Cygwin-based function, the application extracts the component and loads the tampered library, executing code with the victim\u2019s permissions. Exploitation requires write access to the plugin and does not, in itself, involve privilege escalation.\nhttps://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-112161https://www.incibe.es/en/incibe-cert/notices/aviso/lack-integrity-checks-mobateks-mobaxterm#Mobatek #MobaXterm#CVE_2026_112161#bot", "creation_timestamp": "2026-10-19T08:38:36.338524Z"}, {"uuid": "bdd104ed-059f-4f62-b2d1-761e4a197119", "vulnerability_lookup_origin": "1a89b78e-f703-45f3-bb86-59eb712668bd", "author": "9f56dd64-161d-43a6-b9c3-555944290a09", "vulnerability": "CVE-2026-112161", "type": "seen", "source": "https://bsky.app/profile/cve.skyfleet.blue/post/74rdbfteqywff", "content": "CVE-2026-112161 - Lack of integrity checks in Mobatek\u2019s MobaXterm\nCVE ID : CVE-2026-112161\n \n Published : Oct. 19, 2026, 9:17 a.m. | 47\u00a0minutes ago\n \n Description : MobaXterm Personal Edition (Portable) 26.4 GA extracts the CygUtils64.plugin file without first verifying its in...", "creation_timestamp": "2026-10-19T10:45:41.580170Z"}]}
