Glances is an open-source system cross-platform monitoring tool. Prior to 4.5.2, Glances web server runs without authentication by default when started with glances -w, exposing REST API with sensitive system information including process command-lines containing credentials (passwords, API keys, tokens) to any network client. Version 4.5.2 fixes the issue.
CVE-2026-32596
This high-severity CVE scores 7.5 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 1.6%, top 27% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
- High severity, but no confirmed exploitation yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
