An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-24490 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- mobsf (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.4.5\n- mobsf (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.4.5\n- mobsf (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 4.4.5\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-2026-24490/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-24490/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-24490","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-24490/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-24490","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8hf7-h89p-3pqj","PYSEC-2026-1668"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["account_takeover","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MobSF security tool","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"Attacker can execute arbitrary JavaScript in victim's browser via malicious APK upload, leading to session hijacking and account takeover.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"mobile_security_framework","vendor":"opensecurity"}],"cvss":{"score":8.1,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"MobSF is a mobile application security testing tool used.
