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-2026-54581 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: MidnightBSD mport. 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-2026-54581/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-54581/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-54581","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-54581/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-54581","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-895r-rv8j-7g23"],"analysis":{"component_type":"operating_system","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"MidnightBSD package manager","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass hash verification in MidnightBSD's mport, allowing tampered package indexes to be processed, potentially leading to code execution.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-347","name":"Improper Verification of Cryptographic Signature"},{"id":"CWE-345","name":"Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity"}],"description":"mport is the MidnightBSD Package Manager.

A network attacker or compromised mirror able to alter bootstrap index content or its transport path could therefore cause mport to proceed with an unverified or tampered bootstrap package index.
