Elevated risk56th percentile - higher than 56% of all known CVEs
Summary
Animate is affected by an OS Command Injection vulnerability that could allow arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation requires user interaction to open a malicious file. The scope has changed.
Risk Assessment
An attacker could take control of the user's workstation by executing arbitrary system commands, leading to data theft, malware installation, or lateral movement within the network.
Recommendation
Immediately update Animate to the latest patched version. Additionally, enforce policies restricting opening files from untrusted sources and use sandboxing mechanisms.
Other vulnerabilities in Animate
See all- CVE-2026-76191High
Animate is affected by a Code Injection vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user.
