CVE-2026-44482 Details
Description
soundcloud-rpc is a SoundCloud Client with Discord Rich Presence, Dark Mode, Last.fm and AdBlock support. Prior to 0.1.8, a track title containing an HTML payload executed locally in the Electron app. This means attacker-controlled SoundCloud track metadata can lead to local command execution on the user's machine. The application exposes a preload API (window.soundcloudAPI.sendTrackUpdate) to the remote SoundCloud page. Track metadata from SoundCloud is trusted and forwarded through IPC into the Electron main process. The app later renders that metadata as raw HTML inside privileged Electron views that have Node.js integration enabled. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.1.8.
A remote code execution vulnerability has been identified in the SoundCloud-RPC application, prior to version 0.1.8. The issue arises from the way the application handles track metadata from SoundCloud. The metadata is trusted and forwarded through inter-process communication (IPC) to the Electron main process, where it is rendered as raw HTML in privileged Electron views with Node.js integration enabled. This allows attacker-controlled track information to execute commands locally on the user's machine. The vulnerability is present in version 0.1.7.
Users are advised to update to SoundCloud-RPC version 0.1.8 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
