Hi, The following vulnerabilities were published for glances. CVE-2026-32596[0]: | Glances is an open-source system cross-platform monitoring tool. | Prior to 4.5.2, Glances web server runs without authentication by | default when started with `glances -w`, exposing REST API with | sensitive system information including process command-lines | containing credentials (passwords, API keys, tokens) to any network | client. Version 4.5.2 fixes the issue. https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/security/advisories/GHSA-wvxv-4j8q-4wjq https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/commit/208d876118fea5758970f33fd7474908bd403d25 (v4.5.2) CVE-2026-32608[1]: | Glances is an open-source system cross-platform monitoring tool. The | Glances action system allows administrators to configure shell | commands that execute when monitoring thresholds are exceeded. These | commands support Mustache template variables (e.g., `{{name}}`, | `{{key}}`) that are populated with runtime monitoring data. The | `secure_popen()` function, which executes these commands, implements | its own pipe, redirect, and chain operator handling by splitting the | command string before passing each segment to | `subprocess.Popen(shell=False)`. Prior to 4.5.2, when a Mustache- | rendered value (such as a process name, filesystem mount point, or | container name) contains pipe, redirect, or chain metacharacters, | the rendered command is split in unintended ways, allowing an | attacker who controls a process name or container name to inject | arbitrary commands. Version 4.5.2 fixes the issue. https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/security/advisories/GHSA-vcv2-q258-wrg7 https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/commit/6f4ec53d967478e69917078e6f73f448001bf107 (v4.5.2) If you fix the vulnerabilities please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) ids in your changelog entry.
