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-2026-86471/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-86471/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-86471","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-86471/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-86471","record":{"aliases":["BIT-couchdb-2026-86471","GHSA-885r-pfpm-ch95","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-86471"],"analysis":null,"analysis_generated_by":null,"assigner":"apache","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:L/SC:H/SI:H/SA:L/E:A/S:N/AU:Y/R:U/V:C/RE:M/U:Red","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"An unvalidated runtime configuration value in Apache CouchDB 3.5.2 and below on all platforms allows a CouchDB server admin to run arbitrary shell commands as the CouchDB operating system user.\n\nUsers are recommended to upgrade to version 3.5.3, which fixes this issue.","ecosystems":["Bitnami"],"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":"Apache CouchDB: Admin credentials leading to code execution as operating system user","id":"CVE-2026-86471","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":null,"products":[],"type":null,"year":"2026"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"fast-uri vulnerable to inconsistent host case normalization via percent-encoded octets","id":"CVE-2026-86472"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["3.5.3"],"introduced":["0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"couchdb","purl":"pkg:bitnami/couchdb","source":"BIT-couchdb-2026-86471"}],"prev":{"headline":"Glib2: toctou symlink race in `g_file_create_replace_destination` fallback path","id":"CVE-2026-86469"},"products":["Apache CouchDB"],"published":"2026-10-20","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-21","vendors":["Apache Software Foundation"]},"summary":null,"url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-86471/"}
