Summary
In the libre library before version 4.8.1, the websock_decode() function in src/websock/websock.c contains an integer overflow when validating a masked WebSocket frame that uses the 64-bit extended length encoding. The expression 4 + hdr->len can wrap when hdr->len is close to UINT64_MAX, causing the mbuf_get_left() bounds check to pass. The subsequent XOR unmasking loop then writes beyond the heap buffer. Applications using websock_accept() or websock_accept_proto() to implement a WebSocket server are affected, and exploitation can cause attacker-controlled heap corruption or denial of service after the HTTP WebSocket upgrade handshake. This issue is fixed in version 4.8.1.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can cause memory corruption or denial of service in applications using the libre library as a WebSocket server, potentially leading to process takeover or service disruption.
Recommendation
Immediately upgrade the libre library to version 4.8.1 or later, which contains the fix.

- CVE-2026-71885Critical
In Bouncy Castle for Java before 1.86, the Messaging Layer Security (MLS, RFC 9420) implementation did not bind an X.509 credential to a LeafNode's signature_key. LeafNode.verify() checked a leaf's signature against the signature_key carried in the leaf itself, while the credential's X.509 certificate chain was stored but never parsed or validated, so the end-entity certificate's public key was never required to match signature_key as RFC 9420 sec. 5.3 requires. An attacker could present another party's certificate as its credential while signing the leaf, and the enclosing KeyPackage, with an unrelated key, and be accepted under that other party's identity through KeyPackage.verify() and the Group leaf-validation path.
- CVE-2026-92084Critical
The Beaver Builder Page Builder plugin for WordPress up to version 2.11.0.5 is vulnerable to arbitrary shortcode execution. This is due to insufficient validation before running do_shortcode, allowing unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary shortcodes. Exploitation requires a page with the Sidebar module containing a widget that displays attacker-controlled text, such as the Recent Comments widget with approved comments.
- CVE-2026-87115Critical
The VikAppointments Services Booking Calendar plugin for WordPress up to version 1.2.21 is vulnerable to arbitrary file deletion due to insufficient file path validation in the extract function. This allows unauthenticated attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server, potentially leading to remote code execution (e.g., by deleting wp-config.php). Exploitation requires at least one File-type custom field published on the confirmation page.
- CVE-2026-105080Critical
In ConvertX before 0.19.0, converters/calibre.ts does not block recipe files and passes them to the ebook-convert program from Calibre. This allows executable code in .recipe or .downloaded_recipe files.
- CVE-2026-84411Critical
The web management service in affected RouterOS versions contains an integer underflow in HTTP request body handling that is reachable before authentication. An unauthenticated network attacker can exploit a single crafted request to achieve remote code execution as root or cause a denial of service.
- CVE-2026-95102Critical
WebSocket endpoints lack proper authentication mechanisms, enabling attackers to impersonate charging stations. By exploiting this weakness, attackers can gain unauthorized access to sensitive data or perform unauthorized actions. Since no authentication is required, this can lead to privilege escalation and potentially compromise the security of the entire system.
- CVE-2026-82042Critical
UTMStack before 11.2.16 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability that allows remote attackers to gain full administrative API access by presenting a valid Utm-Internal-Key header matching the INTERNAL_KEY environment variable value. The InternalApiKeyFilter accepts this key for any endpoint without path restriction, constant-time comparison, rate limiting, or audit logging. Attackers who obtain the key value can authenticate without a user account or JWT to create accounts, manage users, exfiltrate data, and modify security rules.
- CVE-2026-82041Critical
UTMStack before 11.2.16 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in UTMIncidentCommandWebsocket.processCommand(), the handler mapped to the /command/{hostname} STOMP destination, where no role check or command allowlist is applied before forwarding supplied commands. Any authenticated user, regardless of role, can send arbitrary operating-system commands over gRPC to any connected agent, resulting in command execution on monitored endpoints where agent processes commonly run as root or SYSTEM.
- CVE-2026-75937Critical
A specially crafted HTTP POST request to the web administration interface allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary operating system commands with root privileges on the affected device. Disabling the web server when not configuring the device is recommended.
- CVE-2026-104019Critical
OS command injection in the Studio Space startup validation script in Amazon SageMaker Distribution 2.x before 2.14.12, 3.x before 3.9.12, 4.0.x before 4.0.11, 4.1.x before 4.1.11, 4.2.x before 4.2.8, 4.3.x before 4.3.5, and 4.4.x before 4.4.3, as used by Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio, might allow an authenticated remote user with project contributor permissions to execute arbitrary commands in another project member's Studio Space and obtain that member's temporary execution role credentials via a crafted connection resource property that is interpolated into a shell invocation without neutralization.

libre is a generic library for real-time communications with asynchronous input and output support. Prior to 4.8.1, the websock_decode() function in src/websock/websock.c contains an integer overflow when validating a masked WebSocket frame that uses the 64-bit extended length encoding. The expression 4 + hdr->len can wrap when hdr->len is close to UINT64_MAX, causing the mbuf_get_left() bounds check to pass. The subsequent XOR unmasking loop then writes beyond the heap buffer. Applications using websock_accept() or websock_accept_proto() to implement a WebSocket server are affected, and exploitation can cause attacker-controlled heap corruption or denial of service after the HTTP WebSocket upgrade handshake. This issue is fixed in version 4.8.1.
