{"id":"CVE-2026-44972","summary":"GuardDog: Unsanitized human-readable scan output allows terminal escape injection from malicious package content","details":"GuardDog is a CLI tool to identify malicious PyPI packages. From 2.6.0 to 2.9.0, GuardDog includes attacker-controlled filenames, file locations, messages, and code snippets in its default human-readable output without escaping terminal control characters. A malicious package can therefore inject ANSI or OSC escape sequences into analyst terminals or CI logs.","aliases":["GHSA-m5p4-gvpx-4mvr"],"modified":"2026-07-08T08:13:41.399343541Z","published":"2026-05-27T14:42:00.807Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"GitHub_M","cwe_ids":["CWE-116"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/44xxx/CVE-2026-44972.json"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/44xxx/CVE-2026-44972.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/DataDog/guarddog/security/advisories/GHSA-m5p4-gvpx-4mvr"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-44972"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/datadog/guarddog","events":[{"introduced":"29d17260d392a42d60af27c4222183929157fc24"},{"last_affected":"50a7b9621c1178a04aee9abd2017ec7d6211d4a1"}],"database_specific":{"source":"AFFECTED_FIELD","extracted_events":[{"introduced":"2.6.0"},{"last_affected":"2.9.0"}]}}],"versions":["v2.9.0","v2.8.4","v2.8.3","v2.8.2","v2.7.1","v2.7.0","v2.6.0"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-44972.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N"}]}
