What is CVE-2026-74574?
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: idxd: fix fdev setup failure cleanup in idxd_cdev_open() The failed_dev_add and failed_dev_name paths drop the file-device reference while wq->wq_lock is still held. If put_device(fdev) drops the last reference, idxd_file_dev_release() runs synchronously and tries to take wq->wq_lock again, deadlocking. Those paths also fall through into the later ctx cleanup labels even though idxd_file_dev_release() owns that cleanup and frees ctx. This can make idxd_xa_pasid_remove(ctx) and kfree(ctx) operate on a freed context. Move idxd_wq_get() before file-device setup can fail, since the release callback always calls idxd_wq_put(). Then unlock wq->wq_lock before put_device(fdev) and return directly from the file-device setup failure path, leaving ctx cleanup to the release callback.

- CVE-2026-19917A flaw has been found in code-projects Online Food Order System 1.0. The impacted element is an unknown function of the file delete_food_items1.php. Executing a manipulation of the argument checkbox can lead to sql injection. The attack can be executed remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used.2.1
- CVE-2026-73052SiYuan before v3.7.4 stores attribute-view field names without HTML escaping and interpolates them directly into option elements via innerHTML in the sort menu. Attackers can inject markup by renaming a database field to execute arbitrary JavaScript when users open the sort menu, with Node integration enabled in the desktop client enabling code execution.9.4
- CVE-2026-73053SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the unicode2Emoji function that fails to sanitize codepoint branch output. Attackers can craft document icons with hex-encoded markup that executes in the renderer with Node integration enabled, achieving arbitrary code execution on the host system.9.4
- CVE-2026-73054SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in the WebSocket endpoint caused by differential parsing of query parameters between authentication exemption and session quarantine checks. Unauthenticated attackers can craft a malicious WebSocket URI with duplicated query parameters to bypass access auth code validation and receive the live kernel event stream including document identifiers, titles, and operation logs.8.7
- CVE-2026-73055Shescape before 2.1.15 (and 3.0.0 before 3.0.2) fails to properly escape tilde (~) characters in assignment contexts on Unix systems where the shell is explicitly configured to "sh" or true and /bin/sh points to BusyBox. Using the escape and escapeAll APIs with untrusted input in an assignment prefixed to a command, an attacker can inject a tilde payload to disclose the user's home directory location and, depending on usage, alter the location on which a command operates.9.3
- CVE-2026-74764Pandora contains a path traversal vulnerability in its TAR archive extraction functionality. When processing a submitted TAR archive, the extractor passed archive member names directly to Python's tarfile.TarFile.extract() without applying an extraction filter.
An attacker able to submit a specially crafted TAR archive containing malicious member paths, such as paths using ../ sequences or absolute paths, could cause extracted files to be written outside the intended extraction directory. This may allow the attacker to overwrite files accessible to the Pandora worker process and could potentially result in application compromise, arbitrary code execution, or denial of service depending on the files targeted and the privileges of the Pandora process.
The vulnerability is corrected by using Python's filter='data' extraction filter, which rejects or sanitizes dangerous TAR members, including paths that escape the destination directory and unsafe link targets.
The weakness corresponds to MITRE's general path traversal category, which includes archive extraction cases where attacker-controlled filenames cause files to be written outside the intended directory.10.0
