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-2026-76803 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei/v3 (Go): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.10.0\n- github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei/v3 (Go): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.10.0\n- github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei/v3 (Go): affected from 3.0.0; fixed in 3.10.0\n- github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\n- github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei/v2 (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed\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-2026-76803/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76803/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-76803","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-76803/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-76803","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-xhmx-w2j4-rw3q","GO-2026-6577"],"analysis":{"component_type":"developer_tool","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Vulnerability scanner","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can read arbitrary local files by exploiting a MySQL client sandbox bypass in Nuclei when scanning malicious endpoints with JavaScript templates.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"GitHub_M","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-284","name":"Improper Access Control"}],"description":"Nuclei is a vulnerability scanner built on a simple YAML-based DSL. From 3.0.0 until 3.10.0, the nuclei/mysql JavaScript library does not enforce the local-file sandbox when a JavaScript template supplies the allowAllFiles MySQL DSN option. An untrusted javascript: template scanning an attacker-controlled MySQL-compatible endpoint can cause the server to issue LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE requests for arbitrary paths, after which the scanner's MySQL client reads the files and returns their contents to the server even though -allow-local-file-access is disabled. JavaScript templates can run unsigned and without the -code flag on affected versions, and the bypass affects CLI and SDK deployments that accept untrusted templates.
