It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2026-49816 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2026-49816 is a high-severity unsafe deserialization vulnerability in Dell Command Update (DCU), published on 19 Aug 2026. 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-2026-49816 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Dell Command Update (DCU). 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-2026-49816/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-49816/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-49816","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-49816/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-49816","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-63v3-36f6-6w34"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Dell Command Update","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local low-privileged attacker can exploit a deserialization flaw in Dell Command Update to elevate privileges.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"deserialization"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"dell","cpe":[{"product":"command_update","vendor":"dell"}],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-502","name":"Deserialization of Untrusted Data"}],"description":"Dell Command Update (DCU), versions prior to 5.7.1, contain a Deserialization of Untrusted Data vulnerability.
