{"id":"CVE-2026-113720","published":"2026-10-20T20:17:18.493","lastModified":"2026-10-22T16:47:38.403","description":"virtualenv is a tool for creating isolated virtual python environments. Prior to 21.14.9, the app-data copy seeder uses shutil.copy() to copy cached package files into later environments, causing cached source modes to override the current run's umask. A cache populated under a permissive umask can therefore produce files writable by another local account in a later traversable environment, allowing package code such as pip/__init__.py to be modified and executed by the environment owner. The attacker cannot force the earlier umask, and a private destination parent prevents access. This issue is fixed in version 21.14.9.","cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"cvssVector":null,"cwes":["CWE-732"],"vendors":[],"products":[],"references":[{"url":"https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/commit/35f0b33562790176dd186d0a3c517af3acc7a0e1","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/pull/3425","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/releases/tag/21.14.9","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/security/advisories/GHSA-fc2g-4w5p-6whm","tags":[]}],"exploitRefs":[{"url":"https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/commit/35f0b33562790176dd186d0a3c517af3acc7a0e1","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/pull/3425","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/releases/tag/21.14.9","tags":[]},{"url":"https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/security/advisories/GHSA-fc2g-4w5p-6whm","tags":[]}],"hasPoc":true,"ai":null}
