CVE-2026-10042manga-image-translator RCE via Unsafe Pickle Deserialization in Share Model
Critical 9.8
In plain English
A critical-severity unsafe deserialization in manga-image-translator from zyddnys. Proof-of-concept exploit code is public. The chance it is exploited in the next 30 days is estimated at 0.6% (higher than 50% of all known vulnerabilities).
Official description
manga-image-translator contains a remote code execution vulnerability in the shared API server mode due to unsafe deserialization of untrusted pickle data in the share.py module, where the /execute/{method_name} and /simple_execute/{method_name} endpoints deserialize attacker-controlled HTTP request bodies using pickle.loads(). A remote attacker can supply a crafted pickle payload to these endpoints to execute arbitrary code in the server process, resulting in full container compromise when running in the default Docker deployment as root.
