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: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-65609 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: nnn. 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-2026-65609/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-65609/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-65609","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-65609/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-65609","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-65609","GHSA-r4wp-c597-23pf","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-65609"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"File manager","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges by tricking a user into loading a malicious session file in the nnn file manager.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"CERT-PL","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":2.4,"severity":"low","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:A/VC:N/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-787","name":"Out-of-bounds Write"}],"description":"nnn is vulnerable to Out-of-Bound write vulnerability. Due to lack of validation of attacker-controlled length fields deserialized from a session file, a crafted session file can cause nnn to write data beyond the bounds of fixed-size global buffers when loaded with the -s option.
