An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-4851 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: CASIANO GRID::Machine. 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-2026-4851/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-4851/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-4851","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-4851/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-4851","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p6f4-6qxg-8xqv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl RPC library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A malicious remote host can execute arbitrary code on the client via unsafe deserialization in the GRID::Machine Perl RPC library.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"CPANSec","cpe":[{"product":"grid\\","vendor":"casiano"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-95","name":"Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code"},{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"GRID::Machine versions through 0.127 for Perl allows arbitrary code execution via unsafe deserialization.\n\nGRID::Machine provides Remote Procedure Calls (RPC) over SSH for Perl.
