Summary

CERT-FR issued advisory CERTFR-2026-AVI-0430 warning of multiple vulnerabilities in Python/CPython affecting systems without latest security patches. Two CVEs are referenced: CVE-2026-4786 and CVE-2026-6100. The vulnerabilities allow remote code execution and other unspecified security issues. Organizations running CPython should consult vendor security bulletins for patches.

What changed

CERT-FR published a security advisory warning of multiple vulnerabilities in Python/CPython, including CVE-2026-4786 and CVE-2026-6100, which allow remote code execution and other unspecified security issues. The affected systems are CPython installations without the latest security patches.

Organizations using Python should immediately check their CPython versions against the referenced CVEs, apply the vendor-provided security patches, and monitor the Python security announcement mailing list for future updates. Given the RCE risk, unpatched Python installations should be considered high-priority for remediation.

What to do next

  1. Check CPython installations for CVE-2026-4786 and CVE-2026-6100 exposure
  2. Apply security patches per Python security bulletins HTWB2Z6KT5QQX4RYEZAFININDHNOSIF3 and JQDUNJVB4AQNTJECSUKOBDU3XCJIPSE5
  3. Monitor Python security-announce mailing list for further updates
