CVE-2026-95519

A flaw was found in rpm. An attacker can supply a crafted manifest file that, when processed by a user or automation using rpm -q -p or similar manifest-processing flows, leads to arbitrary code execution. This occurs because manifest entries are unexpectedly macro-expanded before being opened, allowing embedded shell commands to run with the privileges of the rpm process. Successful exploitation can lead to a full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability for the affected account.
