Credential disclosure via raw server objects
Published Mar 18, 2026 · Updated Mar 18, 2026
Information disclosure in Glances before 4.5.2 allows remote attackers to obtain reusable downstream credentials through the Browser API. The /api/4/serverslist handler returns live GlancesServersList objects after background polling writes credential-bearing uri values into them. An unauthenticated Browser instance must have polled a protected downstream server; remote attackers reaching the API can then replay the exposed PBKDF2-derived secret.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
