Technical details
The vulnerability involves a chain: malicious image uploads trigger Ghostscript processing with embedded PostScript in a shared temporary directory; a race condition allows the attacker to manipulate GnuPG configuration files in temporary subdirectories, causing GnuPG to copy attacker-controlled Python code into the application code directory. The injected code executes with the privileges of the SysReptor worker process after restart. Authentication is required; the Community edition is not affected. Version 2026.61 fully remedies this issue.
