CVE-2026-90620Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated remote command execution via API command route

Published Sep 14, 2026 · Updated Sep 14, 2026

Missing authentication in HexStrike AI d689933ff579d839c676c82b231f8e98326c5f04 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands. The /api/command route accepts an unauthenticated JSON command value and passes it to subprocess.Popen with shell execution enabled. The server binds to all interfaces by default, so any network-reachable attacker obtains the privileges of the server process.
