What is CVE-2026-44226?

The pyLoad download manager is susceptible to an information disclosure vulnerability that can be exploited by unauthenticated users. Prior to version 0.5.0b3.dev100, the WebUI of pyLoad incorrectly exposes full Python traceback details upon encountering unhandled exceptions. This flaw allows an attacker to manipulate template names and trigger server exceptions without any authentication. As a result, sensitive internal stack traces are returned in the HTTP responses, potentially revealing critical server configuration details and increasing the risk of further attacks.

Affected Version(s)

pyload < 0.5.0b3.dev100
