Command execution via unescaped binary path
Published Jun 10, 2026 · Updated Jun 10, 2026
OS command injection in KNP Labs Snappy before 1.7.1 allows attackers to execute commands via an attacker-influenced POSIX binary path. The command builder tests is_executable() against an already shell-quoted path, so the check fails and the raw binary string reaches the shell. Exploitation requires control over the configured binary string and runs injected commands with the PHP process's privileges.

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.
