FKIE_CVE-2026-67195

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-08-04 15:16 - Updated: 2026-09-09 20:35
Severity
8.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Summary
Perspective 5.0.0 contains a remote code execution vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary operating system commands by submitting crafted expression strings to the PolarsVirtualServer backend, which passes client-supplied input directly to Python's eval() with only __builtins__={} cleared. Attackers can exploit Python object attribute traversal through the interpreter's loaded class list to reach subprocess.Popen via a TableValidateExprReq or TableMakeViewReq protobuf message, achieving arbitrary command execution in the Perspective host process.
