Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-44073 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Netatalk. 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-2026-44073/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44073/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-44073","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44073/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-44073","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-44073","GHSA-pc7p-8fgv-4x9c","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-44073"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Netatalk file server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote authenticated attackers can retain elevated privileges due to unchecked seteuid return values in Netatalk authentication modules.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"securin","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":4,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-273","name":"Improper Check for Dropped Privileges"}],"description":"Authentication modules in Netatalk 1.5.0 through 4.4.2 fail to check the return value of seteuid(), which may allow a remote authenticated attacker to retain elevated privileges under error conditions.","ecosystems":[],"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":"seteuid failure ignored in auth modules","id":"CVE-2026-44073","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Bitwise OR of errno values","id":"CVE-2026-44074"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"system() after failed chdir()","id":"CVE-2026-44072"},"products":["Netatalk"],"published":"2026-05-21","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-21","vendors":["Netatalk"]},"summary":"Remote authenticated attackers can retain elevated privileges due to unchecked seteuid return values in Netatalk authentication modules.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-44073/"}
