{"id":"PYSEC-2026-2415","summary":"Skill-scanner Unsecured Network Binding Vulnerability","details":"**Description:**\nA vulnerability in the API Server of Skill Scanner could allow a unauthenticated, remote attacker to interact with the server API and either trigger a denial of service (DoS) condition or upload arbitrary files.\n\nThis vulnerability is due to an erroneous binding to multiple interfaces. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending API requests to a device exposing the affected API Server. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to consume an excessive amount of resources (memory starvation) or to upload files to arbitrary folders on the affected device.\n\n**Conditions:**\nThis vulnerability affects Skill-scanner 1.0.1 and earlier releases when the API Server is enabled. The API Server is not enabled by default.\n\n**Fixed Software:**\nSkill-scanner software releases 1.0.2 and later contained the fix for this vulnerability.\n\n**For more information:**\nIf you have any questions or comments about this advisory:\n- [Open an issue in cisco-ai-defense/skill-scanner](https://github.com/cisco-ai-defense/skill-scanner/issues)\n- Email Cisco Open Source Security ([oss-security@cisco.com](mailto:oss-security@cisco.com)) and Cisco PSIRT ([psirt@cisco.com](mailto:psirt@cisco.com))\n\n**Credits:**\n\n- Research: Richard Tweed (@RichardoC)\n- Fix ideation and implementation: Richard Tweed (@RichardoC)\n- Release engineering: Vineeth Sai Narajala (@vineethsai7)","aliases":["CVE-2026-26057","GHSA-ppfx-73j5-fhxc"],"modified":"2026-07-13T16:31:32.401326866Z","published":"2026-07-13T14:36:36.131436Z","references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/cisco-ai-defense/skill-scanner/security/advisories/GHSA-ppfx-73j5-fhxc"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-26057"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://github.com/cisco-ai-defense/skill-scanner/commit/1e35e57f3051ecc89ba845ae7206321c8eac20a1"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://github.com/cisco-ai-defense/skill-scanner"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://pypi.org/project/cisco-ai-skill-scanner"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-ppfx-73j5-fhxc"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"cisco-ai-skill-scanner","ecosystem":"PyPI","purl":"pkg:pypi/cisco-ai-skill-scanner"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.0.2"}]}],"versions":["1.0.0","1.0.1"],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/pypa/advisory-database/blob/main/vulns/cisco-ai-skill-scanner/PYSEC-2026-2415.yaml"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N"}]}
