Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-19072 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Rapid7 Velociraptor. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-19072/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-19072/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-19072","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-19072/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-19072","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5856-3m26-mvm4"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Velociraptor server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An investigator can escalate privileges to administrator by injecting VQL into hunt objects, enabling arbitrary code execution on the server.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"rapid7","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.9,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-164","name":"Improper Neutralization of Internal Special Elements"},{"id":"CWE-1269","name":"Product Released in Non-Release Configuration"}],"description":"Velociraptor stores the compiled VQL in the hunt object internally to avoid having to recompile the artifacts for each endpoint in the hunt.
