It is attacked over the network, in a software library.

Am I affected by CVE-2026-105801?

Check whether you run Openapi-Generators Openapi-Python-Client or openapi-python-client (PyPI) at an affected version. Junglewise does that check for you around the clock: connect your code, cloud and domains, and it matches new vulnerabilities like this one against what you actually run and tells you when one reaches you.

CVE-2026-105801: openapi-python-client code injection in generated client

Q: Is there a fix for CVE-2026-105801?

Yes. openapi-python-client (PyPI): upgrade to 0.29.1 or later. Until then: If generating code from OpenAPI documents you do not control, validate and audit any previously-generated client code for injected malicious content before using it. Junglewise finds every place you run it, drafts the upgrade and applies it once you approve.

CVE-2026-105801 · Severity: high · CVSS 4 · Published 2026-10-06

openapi-python-client is a tool that generates Python client libraries from OpenAPI documents. A vulnerability allows attackers to embed malicious Python code in an OpenAPI document that gets embedded into the generated client code. When users import and use the generated client, this injected code executes automatically, potentially compromising the importing application's security.

Technologies: openapi-python-client (PyPI). Vendors: PyPI.

Technical details

The generator fails to safely escape or neutralize attacker-controlled content from OpenAPI documents before inserting it into Python string literals, docstrings, and f-strings in generated code. This allows code injection that executes upon client import. The vulnerability is addressed in version 0.29.1 through a comprehensive rewrite of string handling to properly escape document content.
