This breaks the intended command structure and causes the Metasploit console to execute additional unintended commands, potentially leading to arbitrary command execution and manipulation of Metasploit sessions.","published":"2026-04-03T05:16:24.000Z","lastModified":"2026-07-24T20:10:00.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"309f9ea4-e3e9-4c6c-b79d-e8eb01244f2c","cvss":{"version":"4.0","score":9.3,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:H/VA:L/SC:L/SI:H/SA:L/E:X/CR:X/IR:X/AR:X/MAV:X/MAC:X/MAT:X/MPR:X/MUI:X/MVC:X/M"},"cwe":["CWE-77"],"affected":["danmcinerney/pymetasploit3"],"epss":{"score":0.02114,"percentile":0.81694,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[{"date":"2026-09-24","score":0.03351,"percentile":0.88207},{"date":"2026-10-25","score":0.02114,"percentile":0.81693}]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.11%).
