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-2026-79718 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- netron (PyPI): affected all versions; fixed in 9.1.3\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-2026-79718/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-79718/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-79718","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-79718/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-79718","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-c4cc-9458-mw86","PYSEC-2026-4001"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Netron desktop app","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Reflected XSS in Netron allows attackers to hide nodes, scan ports, or achieve remote code execution via a Chrome n-day.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"HiddenLayer","cpe":[{"product":"netron","vendor":"lutzroeder"}],"cvss":{"score":6.8,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:H/VI:N/VA:N/SC:L/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-79","name":"Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation"}],"description":"Reflected XSS in Netron versions \u003c=9.1.2 on desktop application through unsanitized node names allows an attacker to hide certain nodes, perform port scanning or abuse a Chrome n-day to achieve Remote Code Execution.","ecosystems":["PyPI"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Netron","id":"CVE-2026-79718","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"PyPI","product":null,"products":[],"type":"xss","year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Netron","id":"CVE-2026-79719"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"PyPI","fixed":["9.1.3"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"netron","purl":"pkg:pypi/netron","source":"PYSEC-2026-4001"}],"prev":{"headline":"Galaxy_ng: galaxy_ng: blind ssrf via namespace avatar_url with no private-address restriction","id":"CVE-2026-79717"},"products":["Netron"],"published":"2026-08-27","related":[{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Netron","id":"CVE-2026-79719","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"},{"cvss_score":6.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Netron","id":"CVE-2026-79720","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-27"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CC BY 4.0","name":"PyPA Advisory Database","prefix":"PYSEC"},{"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":"poc","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-27","vendors":["Netron"]},"summary":"Reflected XSS in Netron allows attackers to hide nodes, scan ports, or achieve remote code execution via a Chrome n-day.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-79718/"}
