{"id":"CVE-2026-71551","summary":"Super Productivity: Arbitrary OS Command Execution via IPC EXEC Handler with Persistent Whitelist","details":"Super Productivity is an advanced todo list app with integrated timeboxing and time tracking capabilities. Prior to 18.13.0, the EXEC IPC handler in electron/ipc-handlers/exec.ts accepts a command string from the renderer through the IPC.EXEC channel and executes it with child_process.exec(). The electron/preload.ts bridge exposes window.ea.exec() to renderer code, including community plugins executed with new Function(), without requiring nodeExecution permission. A confirmation dialog protects only the first execution, its persistence checkbox is selected by default, and approved commands are stored in the ALLOWED_COMMANDS value in simpleSettings for silent later execution with the desktop account's privileges. This issue is fixed in version 18.13.0.","aliases":["GHSA-256q-p9ff-jv8q"],"modified":"2026-08-22T03:30:49.114126435Z","published":"2026-08-18T18:06:19.238Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"GitHub_M","cwe_ids":["CWE-78"],"osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/71xxx/CVE-2026-71551.json"},"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/71xxx/CVE-2026-71551.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/super-productivity/super-productivity/security/advisories/GHSA-256q-p9ff-jv8q"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-71551"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/super-productivity/super-productivity/commit/97e97042cde2e33524c9ad50dd46312c56be0072"},{"type":"FIX","url":"https://github.com/super-productivity/super-productivity/pull/8669"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://github.com/super-productivity/super-productivity","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"97e97042cde2e33524c9ad50dd46312c56be0072"}],"database_specific":{"source":["AFFECTED_FIELD","REFERENCES"],"extracted_events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"18.13.0"}]}}],"versions":["v18.12.1","v18.12.0","v18.11.0","v18.10.0","v18.9.1","v18.9.0","v18.8.0","v18.7.0","v18.6.0","v18.5.0","v18.4.4","v18.4.3","v18.4.2","v18.4.1","v18.4.0","v18.3.0","v18.2.8","v18.2.7","v18.2.6","v18.2.5","v18.2.4","v18.2.2","v18.2.1","v18.2.0","v18.1.3","v18.1.2","v18.1.0","v18.0.2","v18.0.1","v18.0.0","v18.0.0-rc.0","v17.5.2","v17.5.1","v17.5.0","v17.4.1","v17.4.0","v17.2.4","v17.2.3","v17.2.2","v17.2.1","v17.2.0","v17.1.8","v17.1.7","v17.1.6","v17.1.5","v17.1.4","v17.1.3","v17.1.2","v17.1.1","v17.1.0","v17.0.12","v17.0.11","v17.0.9","v17.0.8","v17.0.7","v17.0.6","v17.0.5","v17.0.4","v17.0.3","v17.0.2","v17.0.1","v17.0.0","v17.0.0-RC.13","v17.0.0-RC.12","v17.0.0-RC.11","v17.0.0-RC.10","v17.0.0-RC.9","v17.0.0-RC.7","v17.0.0-RC.8","v17.0.0-RC.5","v17.0.0-RC.3","v17.0.0-RC.2","v17.0.0-RC.1","v17.0.0-RC.0","v16.9.4","v16.9.3","v16.9.2","v16.9.0","v16.8.3","v16.8.2","v16.8.1","v16.8.0","v16.7.3","v16.7.2","v16.6.1","v16.6.0","v16.5.5","v16.5.4","v16.5.3","v16.5.2","v16.5.1","v16.5.0","v16.4.3","v16.4.1","v16.4.0","v16.3.6","v16.3.5","v16.3.4","v16.3.3","v16.3.1","v16.3.2","v16.3.0","v16.2.0","v16.2.1","v16.1.0","v16.0.0","v15.3.0","v15.2.16","v15.2.15","v15.2.14","v15.2.13","v15.2.12","v15.2.11","v15.2.10","v15.2.9","v15.2.8","v15.2.7","v15.2.6","v15.2.5","v15.2.4","v15.2.3","v15.2.2","v15.2.1","v15.2.0","v15.1.3-rc.0","v15.1.2-rc.0","v15.1.1","v15.1.0","v15.1.0-rc.0","v15.0.3","v15.0.2","v15.0.1","v15.0.0","v14.5.0","v14.4.1","v14.4.0","v14.3.4","v14.3.3","v14.0.5","v14.0.3","v14.0.2","v14.0.1","v14.0.0","v14.0.0-rc.1","v13.0.11","v13.0.10","v13.0.9","v13.0.8","v13.0.7","test-4374","v13.0.6","v13.0.5","v13.0.4","v13.0.1","v13.0.0","v12.0.6-rc.10","v12.0.6-rc.9","v12.0.6-rc.8","v12.0.6-rc.7","v12.0.6-rc.6","v12.0.6-rc.5","v12.0.6-rc.4","v12.0.6-rc.3","v12.0.6-rc.2","v12.0.6-rc.1","v12.0.6-rc.0","v12.0.5","v12.0.4","v12.0.3","v12.0.2","v12.0.1","v11.1.3","v11.1.2","v11.1.1","v11.1.0","v11.0.3","v11.0.2","v11.0.1","v11.0.0","v10.3.0-rc.3","v10.3.0-rc.2","v10.2.3","v10.3.0-rc.1","v10.3.0-rc.0","v10.2.2","v10.2.1","v10.2.0","v10.1.1","v10.1.0","v10.0.11","v10.0.9","v10.0.8","v10.0.7","v10.0.6","v10.0.5","v10.0.4","v10.0.3","v10.0.2","v10.0.1","v10.0.0","v10.0.0-rc.0","v9.0.7","v9.0.6","v9.0.5","v9.0.4","v9.0.3","v9.0.2","v9.0.1","v9.0.0","v9.0.0-rc.0","v8.0.10","v8.0.9","v8.0.8","list","v8.0.7","v8.0.6","v8.0.4","v8.0.3","v8.0.1","v8.0.0","v8.0.0-rc.0","v7.17.2","v7.17.1","v7.16.0","v7.15.1","v7.15.0","v7.14.3","v7.14.2","v7.14.1","v7.14.0","v7.13.1","v7.13.0","v7.12.2","v7.12.1","v7.12.0","v7.11.6","v7.11.5","v7.11.4","v7.11.3","v7.11.2","v7.11.1","v7.11.0","v7.10.1","v7.10.0","v7.9.2","v7.9.1","v7.9.0","v7.8.1","v7.8.0","v7.7.0","v7.6.0","v7.6.0-rc.1","v7.6.0-rc.0","v7.5.2","v7.5.1","v7.5.0","v7.5.0-rc.0","v7.4.1","v7.4.0","v7.3.3","v7.3.1","v7.3.0","v7.3.0-rc.0","v7.2.1","v7.2.0","v7.1.0","v7.0.2","v7.0.1","v7.0.0","v7.0.0-rc16","v7.0.0-rc15","v7.0.0-rc14","v7.0.0-rc13","v7.0.0-rc12","v7.0.0-rc11","v7.0.0-rc10","v7.0.0-rc9","v7.0.0-rc8","v7.0.0-rc7","v7.0.0-rc6","v7.0.0-rc5","v7.0.0-rc4","v7.0.0-rc3","v7.0.0-rc2","v7.0.0-rc1","v6.5.2","v6.5.1","v6.5.0","v6.4.0","v6.3.3","v6.3.2","v6.3.1","v6.3.0","v6.3.0-0","v6.2.0-0","v6.1.2","v6.1.1","v6.1.0","v6.1.0-6","v6.1.0-5","v6.1.0-4","v6.1.0-3","v6.1.0-2","v6.1.0-1","v6.1.0-0","v6.0.1","v6.0.0","v6.0.0-rc.5","v6.0.0-rc.4","v6.0.0-rc.3","v5.9.15","v5.9.14","v5.9.13","v5.9.12","v5.9.11","v5.9.10","v5.9.9","v5.9.8","v5.9.6","v5.9.5","v5.9.4","v5.9.3","v5.9.2","v5.9.1","v5.9.0","v5.8.2","v5.8.1","v5.8.0","v5.7.7","v5.7.6","v5.7.5","v5.7.4","v5.7.3","v5.7.2","v5.7.1","v5.7.0","v5.6.5","v5.6.4","v5.6.2","v5.6.1","v5.6.0","v5.5.7","v5.5.6","v5.5.5","v5.5.4","v5.5.3","v5.5.2","v5.5.1","v5.5.0","v5.4.3","v5.4.2","v5.4.0","v5.3.5","v5.3.4","v5.3.3","v5.3.2","v5.3.1","v5.3.0","v5.2.1","v5.2.0","v5.1.4","v5.1.3","v5.1.1","v5.1.
