CVE-2026-79918 Details
Description
MaxKB is an open-source AI assistant for enterprise. Prior to version 2.10.6-lts, the ToolExecutor LD_PRELOAD sandbox hooks execve, execvpe, and execveat to prevent subprocess creation but does not hook fexecve. An authenticated attacker able to execute tool code can call fexecve to start a process outside the sandbox's intended subprocess policy. This issue is fixed in version 2.10.6-lts.
A sandbox escape vulnerability has been identified in MaxKB versions prior to 2.10.6-lts. The issue arises in the ToolExecutor component, where the LD_PRELOAD sandbox hooks certain system calls to prevent subprocess creation. However, the fexecve call is not hooked, allowing an authenticated attacker with the ability to execute tool code to start a process outside the intended subprocess policy, thereby bypassing the sandbox restrictions.
Users can upgrade to MaxKB version 2.10.6-lts to address this vulnerability.
