Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in 0x5t4l1n NexTor IP Changer up to 1.x. This vulnerability affects an unknown part. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a os command injection vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-78.

As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

NexTor IP Changer is a command-line tool that leverages the Tor network to periodically rotate a user's IP address. Versions prior to 2.0.0 have a command execution vulnerability due to unsafe use of `shell=True` with commands that rely on executable resolution through the `PATH` environment variable. An attacker controlling the execution environment can place malicious executables such as sudo earlier in the `PATH`, resulting in execution of attacker-controlled code. Version 2.0.0 fixes the issue.

The advisory is available at github.com. This vulnerability was named CVE-2026-48097 since 05/20/2026. The exploitation appears to be easy. Local access is required to approach this attack. Successful exploitation requires user interaction by the victim. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available. This vulnerability is assigned to T1202 by the MITRE ATT&CK project.

Upgrading to version 2.0.0 eliminates this vulnerability.
