What it is

The product validates input before applying protection mechanisms that modify the input, which could allow an attacker to bypass the validation via dangerous inputs that only arise after the modification.

CVE-2026-90813

CVE-2026-90813 - MEDIUM Severity Vulnerability

A vulnerability was detected in cosmicstack-labs mercury-agent up to 1.1.13. Affected is the function checkShellCommand of the file src/capabilities/permissions.ts of the component Shell Command Execution. The manipulation results in incorrect behavior order: validate before canonicalize. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit is now public and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

CVE-2026-49414

ASLR bypass for setuid executables via procctl(2)

The ELF image activator cleared per-process ASLR preference flags for setuid binaries after the code that computes the PIE base address, rather than before. As a result, a user-requested ASLR disable was still in effect at the point where the base address was chosen. An unprivileged local user can disable ASLR for a setuid PIE binary by calling procctl(2) before execve(2). This makes exploitation of any separate memory corruption vulnerability in that binary significantly easier.

CVE-2026-3832

CVE-2026-3832 - LOW Severity Vulnerability

A flaw was found in gnutls. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by presenting a specially crafted Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) response during a TLS handshake. Due to a logic error in how gnutls processes multi-record OCSP responses, a client with OCSP verification enabled may incorrectly accept a revoked server certificate, potentially leading to a compromise of trust.
