It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-54702 exists.\n\nAffected product: shd101wyy vscode-markdown-preview-enhanced. 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-2026-54702/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-54702/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-54702","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-54702/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-54702","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-83c6-hcjv-pvmg"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","data_modify"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"VS Code extension","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers with webview script execution can invoke privileged extension commands to execute code or modify files due to missing input validation in the message handler.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-749","name":"Exposed Dangerous Method or Function"}],"description":"Markdown Preview Enhanced is a Markdown preview extension for Visual Studio Code. Prior to 0.8.30, the webview message handler in src/preview-provider.ts accepts an attacker-controlled command value and attacker-controlled args, constructs a command in the _crossnote namespace, and invokes vscode.commands.executeCommand without an allowlist or type validation. JavaScript already executing in the preview webview can use this bridge to invoke privileged extension commands, including file modification, code-chunk execution, export-tool execution, and arbitrary URL opening, with attacker-selected arguments. Exploitation requires a separate webview JavaScript execution path, such as the independently tracked .crossnote/head.html injection, but no further authorization check protects the extension-host command boundary. This issue is fixed in version 0.8.30.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":false,"headline":"Markdown Preview Enhanced: Blind Command Dispatch via Unvalidated Webview Message Handler","id":"CVE-2026-54702","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"code_injection","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Markdown Preview Enhanced: Arbitrary File Write via updateMarkdown Command Without Path Validation","id":"CVE-2026-54703"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Markdown Preview Enhanced: Stored XSS via Unsanitized `.crossnote/head.html` Injection in Webview","id":"CVE-2026-54701"},"products":["vscode-markdown-preview-enhanced"],"published":"2026-10-14","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":"poc","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-15","vendors":["shd101wyy"]},"summary":"Attackers with webview script execution can invoke privileged extension commands to execute code or modify files due to missing input validation in the message handler.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-54702/"}
