CVE-2026-63278: Package URLs can be used to exfiltrate arbitrary INI file values and environment variables
- Severity: medium (CVSS 6.7 v4.0)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 0.1% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- Public exploit or detection template: none known
- Published: 2026-09-22 · updated 2026-09-22
- Weakness: CWE-200
Description
URLs could be constructed which expanded environment variable or INI file values, so potentially sensitive information could be exfiltrated to a remote server on opening a document containing such links. The check added for CVE-2024-12426 did not recognise every way of naming the package content provider, so a URL that named it differently still reached the expansion. In fixed versions the package content provider is matched when the URL is checked.
