It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-26280 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- systeminformation (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 5.30.8\n- systeminformation (npm): affected all versions; fixed in 5.30.8\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-2026-26280/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-26280/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-26280","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-26280/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-26280","record":{"aliases":["CLEANSTART-2026-FG19009","CLSA-2026-1790004555","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-26280","ECHO-4b25-5703-ecdd","GHSA-9c88-49p5-5ggf","MINI-9g4j-4x99-8r2j","MINI-hh22-8x45-w9h7","MINI-p8h9-mp23-fh86","MINI-q4mp-rph9-9324","MINI-qpp5-29jf-qhwh","MINI-qv5m-46g2-3r2c","MINI-qwrg-gxmr-pvm7","MINI-rmrm-mvgx-xc33","MINI-x6j8-p3fm-gxc4","ROOT-APP-NPM-CVE-2026-26280","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-26280"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Node.js system info library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary OS commands via unsanitized interface parameters in the wifiNetworks function of the systeminformation library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"command_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[{"product":"systeminformation","vendor":"systeminformation"}],"cvss":{"score":8.4,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"systeminformation is a System and OS information library for node.js. In versions prior to 5.30.8, a command injection vulnerability in the `wifiNetworks()` function allows an attacker to execute arbitrary OS commands via an unsanitized network interface parameter in the retry code path. In `lib/wifi.js`, the `wifiNetworks()` function sanitizes the `iface` parameter on the initial call (line 437). However, when the initial scan returns empty results, a `setTimeout` retry (lines 440-441) calls `getWifiNetworkListIw(iface)` with the **original unsanitized** `iface` value, which is passed directly to `execSync('iwlist ${iface} scan')`. Any application passing user-controlled input to `si.wifiNetworks()` is vulnerable to arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the Node.js process. Version 5.30.8 fixes the issue.","ecosystems":["npm"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Systeminformation has a Command Injection via unsanitized interface parameter in wifi.js retry path","id":"CVE-2026-26280","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"npm","product":null,"products":[],"type":"command_injection","year":"2026"},"n_packages":2,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"InvoicePlane has Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Issue in Sumex Invoice View","id":"CVE-2026-26281"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["5.30.8"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"systeminformation","purl":null,"source":"GHSA-9c88-49p5-5ggf"},{"ecosystem":"npm","fixed":["5.30.8"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"systeminformation","purl":"pkg:npm/systeminformation","source":"GHSA-9c88-49p5-5ggf"}],"prev":{"headline":"Froxlor Admin-to-Root Privilege Escalation via Input Validation Bypass + OS Command Injection","id":"CVE-2026-26279"},"products":["systeminformation"],"published":"2026-02-19","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"systeminformation SSID Command Injection Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2023-42810","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-09-21"},{"cvss_score":8.9,"headline":"Command Injection Vulnerability in systeminformation","id":"CVE-2021-21388","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-04-29"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"systeminformation has Command Injection via Unsanitized `locate` Output in `versions()`","id":"CVE-2026-26318","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-19"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Command Injection","id":"CVE-2020-7752","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-10-26"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"systeminformation: OS command injection in networkInterfaces() via interfaces(5) source-directive path on Linux","id":"CVE-2026-50289","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-17"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Command Injection in fsSize() on Windows","id":"CVE-2025-68154","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-12-16"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"GitHub Advisory Database","prefix":"GHSA"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-15","vendors":["sebhildebrandt"]},"summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary OS commands via unsanitized interface parameters in the wifiNetworks function of the systeminformation library.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-26280/"}
