{"schemaVersion":3,"id":"CVE-2026-40316","aliases":[],"status":"published","duplicateOf":null,"title":null,"description":"OWASP BLT is a QA testing and vulnerability disclosure platform that encompasses websites, apps, git repositories, and more. Versions prior to 2.1.1 contain an RCE vulnerability in the .github/workflows/regenerate-migrations.yml workflow. The workflow uses the pull_request_target trigger to run with full GITHUB_TOKEN write permissions, copies attacker-controlled files from untrusted pull requests into the trusted runner workspace via git show, and then executes python manage.py makemigrations, which imports Django model modules including attacker-controlled website/models.py at runtime. Any module-level Python code in the attacker's models.py is executed during import, enabling arbitrary code execution in the privileged CI environment with access to GITHUB_TOKEN and repository secrets. The attack is triggerable by any external contributor who can open a pull request, provided a maintainer applies the regenerate-migrations label, potentially leading to secret exfiltration, repository compromise, and supply chain attacks. A patch for this issue is expected to be released in version 2.1.1.","dates":{"published":"2026-04-15T22:49:18.636Z","modified":"2026-04-16T14:18:12.374Z","reserved":null,"kevAdded":[],"kevDue":[]},"cvss":{"headline":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","version":"3.1","versionLabel":"v3.1","source":"CVE.org","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","computed":false,"selection":"backend-summary"},"metrics":[{"version":"3.1","versionLabel":"v3.1","source":"CVE.org","score":8.8,"severity":"high","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","exploitability":null,"impact":null,"computed":false},{"version":"3.1","versionLabel":"v3.1","source":"NVD","score":8.8,"severity":"high","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","exploitability":null,"impact":null,"computed":false}]},"epss":{"probability":0.00596,"percentile":0.47533,"severity":"low","asOf":"2026-10-20T00:00:00.000Z","change":{"pp":0.185,"baselineDate":"2026-09-20T00:00:00.000Z","baselineScore":0.00411},"history":[{"date":"2026-09-14T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-15T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-16T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-17T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-18T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-19T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-20T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-21T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-22T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-23T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-24T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-25T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-26T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-27T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-28T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-29T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-30T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-01T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-02T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-03T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-04T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-05T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-06T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-07T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-08T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-09T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-10T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-11T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-12T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-13T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-14T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-15T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-16T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-17T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-18T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-19T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-20T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":0.47533}],"last30":[{"date":"2026-09-20T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-21T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-22T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-23T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00411,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-24T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-25T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-26T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-27T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-28T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-29T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-30T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-01T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-02T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-03T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-04T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-05T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-06T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-07T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-08T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-09T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00596,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-10T00:00:00.000Z","score"
