{"schemaVersion":3,"id":"CVE-2026-45036","aliases":[],"status":"published","duplicateOf":null,"title":null,"description":"Tabby (formerly Terminus) is a highly configurable terminal emulator. Prior to 1.0.233, Tabby before 1.0.233 automatically confirms ZMODEM protocol detection on all terminal session output without user interaction, enabling shell command execution when a user displays attacker-controlled content. The ZModemMiddleware in tabby-terminal consumes all session output through a Zmodem.Sentry, and when a ZMODEM ZRQINIT header is detected, unconditionally calls detection.confirm() and writes a fixed ZRINIT response ( **\\x18B0100000023be50\\r\\n\\x11) back into the active PTY as input. When the process that triggered the detection (e.g., cat) exits, the injected bytes are consumed by the user's shell as a command line. Under fish (default configuration), the ** prefix triggers recursive glob expansion against the current directory, allowing an attacker-placed executable at a matching nested path (e.g., d/xB0100000023be50) to be executed by relative pathname without relying on PATH. Under bash and zsh, a secondary xterm.js terminal color-query feedback (OSC 10) can be combined in the same file to inject a slash-containing command word that similarly bypasses PATH resolution. An attacker can exploit this by providing a crafted file (e.g., in a cloned Git repository) that a user displays with cat, achieving code execution with no interaction beyond viewing the file. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.0.233.","dates":{"published":"2026-05-15T16:47:17.974Z","modified":"2026-05-20T15:42:57.726Z","reserved":null,"kevAdded":[],"kevDue":[]},"cvss":{"headline":{"score":7,"severity":"high","version":"3.1","versionLabel":"v3.1","source":"CVE.org","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/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":7,"severity":"high","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/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":7,"severity":"high","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","exploitability":null,"impact":null,"computed":false}]},"epss":{"probability":0.00179,"percentile":0.07064,"severity":"low","asOf":"2026-10-21T00:00:00.000Z","change":{"pp":0.049,"baselineDate":"2026-09-21T00:00:00.000Z","baselineScore":0.0013},"history":[{"date":"2026-09-14T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-15T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-16T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-17T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-18T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-19T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-20T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-21T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-22T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-23T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-24T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-25T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-26T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-27T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-28T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-29T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-30T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-01T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-02T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-03T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-04T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-05T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-06T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-07T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-08T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-09T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-10T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-11T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-12T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-13T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-14T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-15T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-16T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-17T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-18T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-19T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-20T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-21T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":0.07064}],"last30":[{"date":"2026-09-21T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-22T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-23T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.0013,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-24T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-25T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-26T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-27T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-28T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-29T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-09-30T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-01T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-02T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-03T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-04T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-05T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-06T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-07T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-08T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-09T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percentile":null},{"date":"2026-10-10T00:00:00.000Z","score":0.00179,"percenti
