{"cve":"CVE-2026-55897","nvd":{"published":"2026-09-21T20:17:26.670","modified":"2026-09-24T21:25:27.050","status":"Deferred","description":"luci-app-advanced-reboot is a LuCI (web interface) application for OpenWrt that provides a  way to reboot your router into an alternative firmware partition or perform  reboot operations directly from the web UI. Prior to 1.1.2-6, the luci-app-advanced-reboot read ACL in applications/luci-app-advanced-reboot/root/usr/share/rpcd/acl.d/luci-app-advanced-reboot.json grants rpcd file.exec permission for the general shell interpreter /bin/sh. An authenticated delegated session with that read ACL can supply caller-controlled params; rpcd authorizes the executable path and passes those arguments to the shell, allowing arbitrary commands to execute as root. Builds without the /bin/sh exec grant, including the checked openwrt-24.10 and openwrt-23.05 branches, are not affected by this specific chain. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.1.2-6.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":8.8},"cwes":["CWE-78"],"references":["https://github.com/openwrt/luci/commit/2df00deb122093cbf429266ffef7ad06aaecb48f","https://github.com/openwrt/luci/commit/f85102548ee8325bfd581a0327b210b5f7670829","https://github.com/openwrt/luci/pull/8710","https://github.com/openwrt/luci/security/advisories/GHSA-vj96-f37g-37f6","https://github.com/openwrt/luci/security/advisories/GHSA-vj96-f37g-37f6"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:55:23.253742848+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-55897","score":0.0065,"percentile":0.51148,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
