CVE-2026-62982: Nicolargo Glances

High severity, CVSS 8.8. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Glances is an open-source system cross-platform monitoring tool. From 4.5.2 until 4.5.6, _sanitize_mustache_dict() in glances/actions.py skips nested list and dictionary strings such as process cmdline values, allowing pipe characters to survive chevron.render() and be executed by secure_popen() through administrator-configured action templates. This issue is fixed in 4.5.6.

Affected products

• Nicolargo Glances: from 4.5.2, before 4.5.6 (fixed in 4.5.6)
