{"id":"ALSA-2026:65162","summary":"Important: gpsd security update","details":"gpsd is a service daemon that mediates access to a GPS sensor connected to the host computer by serial or USB interface, making its data on the location/course/velocity of the sensor available to be queried on TCP port 2947 of the host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client applications (such as navigational and war-driving software) can share access to a GPS without contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd responds to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse than NMEA 0183. The AlmaLinux support for this package is limited. See \u003chttps://access.AlmaLinux.com/support/policy/gpsd-support\u003e for more details.  \n\nSecurity Fix(es):  \n\n  * gpsd: gpsd: Arbitrary OS command execution via code injection in gpsprof utility (CVE-2026-60122)\n\n\nFor more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.\n","modified":"2026-09-09T12:15:04.256069297Z","published":"2026-09-08T00:00:00Z","related":["CVE-2026-60122"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:65162"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-60122"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugzilla.redhat.com/2506581"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://errata.almalinux.org/10/ALSA-2026-65162.html"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"gpsd","ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:10","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/gpsd"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1:3.26.1-3.el10_2.2"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/AlmaLinux/osv-database/blob/master/advisories/almalinux10/ALSA-2026:65162.json"}},{"package":{"name":"gpsd-clients","ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:10","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/gpsd-clients"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1:3.26.1-3.el10_2.2"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/AlmaLinux/osv-database/blob/master/advisories/almalinux10/ALSA-2026:65162.json"}},{"package":{"name":"python3-gpsd","ecosystem":"AlmaLinux:10","purl":"pkg:rpm/almalinux/python3-gpsd"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1:3.26.1-3.el10_2.2"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/AlmaLinux/osv-database/blob/master/advisories/almalinux10/ALSA-2026:65162.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
