## What is CVE-2026-93676?

CVE-2026-93676 is a low-severity vulnerability in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, published on 18 Sep 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

### Official description

xdg-dbus-proxy incorrectly filters D-Bus broadcast messages, bypassing configured path, interface, and member restrictions. This allows a sandboxed Flatpak application to intercept broadcast signals on the D-Bus session bus and AT-SPI bus that should be restricted, potentially exposing sensitive information to unauthorized applications.

Weakness: CWE-284 (Improper Access Control)

Check this codebase for CVE-2026-93676 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2026-93676 is a low-severity vulnerability in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, published on 18 Sep 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-93676 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
