CVE-2026-46608
7.4HIGH
What is CVE-2026-46608?
The Glances monitoring tool features a CORS misconfiguration that allows unauthorized cross-origin requests. An operator attempting to create an explicit allowlist may inadvertently expose their system's monitoring data. Specifically, when two origins are listed, Glances defaults to allowing all origins instead. This flaw enables any malicious webpage to make requests to the Glances XML-RPC server, potentially compromising sensitive system data. This vulnerability has been addressed in version 4.5.5.
