CVE-2026-81180
8.8 HIGHpublic exploit availablePublished 2026-09-18 · Updated 2026-09-22
AI risk analysis
- Summary
- SysReptor Professional allows authenticated users to upload image files that can execute arbitrary code due to improper handling of Ghostscript and GnuPG, leading to Remote Code Execution (RCE) with the application's privileges.
- Exploitability
- Exploitation requires an authenticated user with access to upload image files. Precondition is the presence of a race condition involving GnuPG configuration files.
- Blast radius
- If exploited, the attacker can gain full control over the SysReptor application, potentially leading to data loss, system compromise, and unauthorized access to sensitive information.
- Detection
- No reliable host or network indicator is derivable from the published description.
- Prioritized remediation
- Upgrade to SysReptor version 2026.61 or later.

NVD description
SysReptor is a fully customizable pentest reporting platform. Prior to 2026.61, authenticated users of SysReptor Professional can upload image files whose formats cause image processing to invoke Ghostscript, allowing embedded PostScript to operate in the shared temporary directory. An attacker can combine that behavior with a race involving GnuPG configuration files in temporary subdirectories to cause GnuPG to copy attacker-controlled Python code into the application code directory. The injected code executes with the privileges of the SysReptor application process after a worker restart. The Community edition is not affected. Version 2026.58 contains a partial mitigation, and this issue is fully fixed in version 2026.61.
