CVE-2026-6819

Status: AnalyzedHigh (8.7)—

HKUDS OpenHarness prior to PR #156 remediation exposes plugin lifecycle commands including /plugin install, /plugin enable, /plugin disable, and /reload-plugins to remote senders by default. Attackers who gain access through the channel layer can remotely manage plugin trust and activation state, enabling unauthorized plugin installation and activation on the system.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
