Summary
The HTTP::Daemon library for Perl before version 6.17 has an OS command injection vulnerability in the send_file() function. It opens its string argument with Perl's 2-arg open(), which interprets magic prefixes like '| cmd' as a pipe to a subprocess, allowing arbitrary command execution.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can pass untrusted input to send_file(), leading to OS command execution with the daemon process privileges, and potential file read or write operations.
Recommendation
Upgrade the HTTP::Daemon library to version 6.17 or later, and avoid passing untrusted data to the send_file() function.

Quasar Framework before 2.22.0 has a vulnerability in the SSR-only getHead() serializer that fails to properly encode values supplied via useMeta(). An attacker who can influence dynamic page metadata can inject executable HTML markup before hydration. The client-side path is not affected because it uses DOM APIs that encode attributes.

The @payloadcms/plugin-form-builder plugin in versions before 3.90.0 and canary versions before 4.0.0-canary.34 has a vulnerability that allows an attacker to execute code remotely on the server via a crafted form submission. This issue is fixed in versions 3.90.0 and 4.0.0-canary.34.
- CVE-2026-105851Critical
Payload CMS in versions from 3.0.0 before 3.90.0 and canary versions before 4.0.0-canary.34 has a vulnerability in the duplicate operation that copies values from a source document even when a field is hidden or its access.read/access.create rule rejects that value for the caller. The disableDuplicate setting does not prevent this access-control bypass. This issue is fixed in versions 3.90.0 and 4.0.0-canary.34.
- CVE-2026-104070Critical
The Crayons plugin for SPIP before 3.5.0 contains a missing authorization vulnerability that allows unauthenticated attackers to modify arbitrary editable object fields by omitting the secu_ anti-forgery parameter in crayons_store.php. Attackers can chain this flaw to write a malicious .html skeleton file, disclose sensitive configuration files containing the site secret, and forge a signed ajax context to execute the uploaded skeleton, achieving arbitrary PHP code execution as the web-server user.

Original NVD description (English source)
HTTP::Daemon versions before 6.17 for Perl allow OS command injection via send_file(). send_file() opens its string argument with Perl's 2-arg open(). The 2-arg form interprets magic prefixes: '| cmd' and 'cmd |' open a pipe to a subprocess, '> path' and '>> path' open the path for write or append. Untrusted input passed to send_file() can run OS commands at the daemon process UID. The read-pipe form ('cmd |') also leaks subprocess stdout into the HTTP response body. The write-mode forms can create or truncate files at attacker chosen paths.
