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-2026-48962 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: PMQS IO::Compress. 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-2026-48962/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-48962/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-48962","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-48962/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-48962","record":{"aliases":["ALSA-2026:30858","ALSA-2026:30859","ALSA-2026:30860","AZL-89280","BELL-CVE-2026-48962","CLSA-2026-1782898054","CLSA-2026-1782898846","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-48962","ECHO-fb2a-578c-be2d","GHSA-q6wx-vhvq-x7h6","OESA-2026-2610","OESA-2026-2652","OESA-2026-2653","OESA-2026-2654","RHSA-2026:29182","RHSA-2026:29210","RHSA-2026:29867","RHSA-2026:29941","RHSA-2026:30085","RHSA-2026:30086","RHSA-2026:30115","RHSA-2026:30843","RHSA-2026:30858","RHSA-2026:30859","RHSA-2026:30860","RLSA-2026:30858","RLSA-2026:30859","RLSA-2026:30860","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-48962","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-48962","openSUSE-SU-2026:10939-1"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Perl IO::Compress library","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can execute arbitrary Perl code by providing a malicious output glob string to the IO::Compress library, leading to full process compromise.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"CPANSec","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"},{"id":"CWE-95","name":"Improper Neutralization of Directives in Dynamically Evaluated Code"}],"description":"IO::Compress versions before 2.220 for Perl can execute arbitrary code in File::GlobMapper via an attacker-controlled output glob.\n\n_parseOutputGlob() wraps the caller-supplied output glob string in double quotes and stores it in the parser state; _getFiles() then runs the stored expression through eval STRING.
