{"id":"CVE-2026-49145","summary":"App::Ack versions through 3.10.0 for Perl read arbitrary files via --files-from in a project .ackrc","details":"App::Ack versions through 3.10.0 for Perl read arbitrary files via --files-from in a project .ackrc.\n\nack searches up the directory hierarchy from the current directory for a project .ackrc and loads its options. The project-source option blocklist in App::Ack::ConfigLoader does not include --files-from, so a project .ackrc can set it to a path whose listed files ack then reads and searches. Version 3.10.0 added --follow to the blocklist; --files-from remains accepted.\n\nA project .ackrc committed to an untrusted repository can make ack read files outside the project and print their matching lines.","modified":"2026-07-10T04:02:24.415234226Z","published":"2026-07-08T14:55:13.819Z","related":["openSUSE-SU-2026:10965-1"],"database_specific":{"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/49xxx/CVE-2026-49145.json","cna_assigner":"CPANSec","cwe_ids":["CWE-426","CWE-73"]},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2026/07/08/7"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://cpan.org/modules"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/49xxx/CVE-2026-49145.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://metacpan.org/release/PETDANCE/ack-v3.10.0/source/Changes"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-49145"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/beyondgrep/ack3"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/beyondgrep/ack3","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"e627c18e77d635b0dad69c77749e9296071b8389"}],"database_specific":{"source":"AFFECTED_FIELD","extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"3.10.0"}]}}],"versions":["v3.10.0","v3.9.0","v3.8.2","v3.8.1","v3.8.0","v3.6.0","v3.5.0","v3.4.0","v3.1.3","v3.1.2","v3.1.1","v3.1.0","v3.0.3","v3.0.2","v3.0.1","v3.0.0","2.999_08","2.999_07","2.999_06","2.999_05","2.999_04","2.999_02","2.999_01","2.18r","2.18"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-49145.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"}]}
