An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-59997 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: OpenSSH. 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-2026-59997/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-59997/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-59997","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-59997/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-59997","record":{"aliases":["ALPINE-CVE-2026-59997","AZL-92036","BELL-CVE-2026-59997","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-59997","ECHO-94a5-77ee-11fa","GHSA-56r6-6mmg-25j5","JLSEC-2026-1321","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2026-59997","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2026-59997","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2026-59997","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-59997"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"OpenSSH internal-sftp","requires_auth":"none","summary":"OpenSSH internal-sftp ignores command-line arguments beyond the ninth, potentially bypassing intended security restrictions on SFTP connections.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"openssh","vendor":"openbsd"}],"cvss":{"score":4.2,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-1284","name":"Improper Validation of Specified Quantity in Input"}],"description":"internal-sftp in sshd in OpenSSH before 10.4 recognizes only the first 9 command-line arguments, which can be important if a later command-line argument would have helped to ensure the intended security properties of an SFTP connection.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Security feature bypass in OpenSSH","id":"CVE-2026-59997","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"openbsd:openssh","products":["openbsd:openssh"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in OpenSSH","id":"CVE-2026-59998"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Path traversal in OpenSSH","id":"CVE-2026-59996"},"products":["OpenSSH"],"published":"2026-07-08","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0786","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-09-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-0693","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-09-17"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2002-0640","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2003-04-02"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0144","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-07"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0999","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-11-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0525","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-10-13"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-4478","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-12-06"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-07-08","vendors":["OpenBSD"]},"summary":"OpenSSH internal-sftp ignores command-line arguments beyond the ninth, potentially bypassing intended security restrictions on SFTP connections.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-59997/"}
