Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-72557 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Cockpit CMS. 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-2026-72557/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72557/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-72557","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72557/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-72557","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-8gxj-mv75-3mrm"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Cockpit CMS","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Authenticated users can upload PHP webshells to execute arbitrary commands due to default wildcard upload settings.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"file_upload"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"TuranSec","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-434","name":"Unrestricted Upload of File with Dangerous Type"}],"description":"An unrestricted file upload vulnerability in Cockpit CMS 2.6.0 allows authenticated users to upload files of any extension including PHP scripts via the asset upload endpoint.
