Description

CVE-2026-79919 is a protection mechanism failure vulnerability in MaxKB, an open-source AI assistant for enterprise. Versions prior to 2.10.6-lts allow an authenticated workspace member to bypass the LD_PRELOAD sandbox syscall blacklist by exploiting a flaw in how ctypes.CDLL is invoked from a MetaPathFinder callback. This enables unauthorized read/write file access, process execution, and network access as the sandbox user. The issue is fixed in version 2.10.6-lts.
