CVE-2026-72580Network attack vector

Unsubstantiated command execution through mute endpoints

Published Aug 10, 2026 · Updated Aug 10, 2026

xiaoai-patch through commit fb07049 is reported to allow remote attackers to execute system commands through its mute API. However, api/main.py only tests whether silent is present, assigns the fixed string SILENT=1, and invokes os.system() with fixed service and action values. The published command-injection mechanism therefore conflicts with the cited source code, leaving exploitability unverified.
