No fix is confirmed yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for the fix.

The CVE record's description, written by its CNA (VulDB), states the affected versions: "A flaw has been found in zackees transcribe-anything up to 4.1.0." No release containing a fix is confirmed on record.

A flaw has been found in zackees transcribe-anything up to 4.1.0. Affected is the function ytdlp_download of the file src/transcribe_anything/ytldp_download.py of the component Yt-dlp Download. This manipulation of the argument url causes os command injection. The attack may be initiated remotely. The attack's complexity is rated as high. The exploitability is told to be difficult. The exploit has been published and may be used. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Exploitation public PoC (CISA Vulnrichment) · Automatable no (CISA Vulnrichment) · Technical impact partial (CISA Vulnrichment). All three are CISA's SSVC values (Vulnrichment). EchelonGraph applied CISA's decision table to them; CISA publishes SSVC inputs and the table, not a decision for each CVE. Mission impact is CISA's Mission & Well-being decision point, and only you can judge it. CISA's table makes it high when Mission Prevalence is Essential — the vulnerable component "directly provides capabilities that constitute at least one MEF for at least one entity" (MEF: mission essential function) — or when Public Well-Being Impact is Irreversible: "multiple fatalities are likely", the cyber-physical system "is likely lost or destroyed", "extreme or serious externalities" are imposed on other parties, or social systems such as elections or the financial grid "are destabilized and potentially collapse".

Data Freshness Timeline

(refreshed 17× in last 7d / 78× in last 30d)

Each row is a time one of our pipelines fetched, updated or re-scored this CVE. For example, "NVD update" means NVD published or revised its analysis for this CVE; "MITRE cvelistV5" means we ingested or refreshed it from the CNA feed. An arrow marks a change the record states ("CVSS v3 → 9.1"); EPSS and GHSA rows show the values recorded at that time, not what changed (EPSS values are rounded; hover one for the exact figures). Most recent first.

Showing the most recent 98 of 136 refreshes on record for this CVE.

A repeat, a row identical to one the same pipeline wrote less than 10 seconds earlier, is not a separate refresh and is not counted. 2 repeat rows among the latest 100 are merged into the row they repeat. The 38 oldest rows on record are not shown and were not checked, so the counts can still include repeats.

What is CVE-2026-79792?
CVE-2026-79792 is a medium-severity vulnerability; its CVE record was published on August 25, 2026. A flaw has been found in zackees transcribe-anything up to 4.1.0. Affected is the function ytdlpdownload of the file src/transcribeanything/ytldp_download.py of the component Yt-dlp Download. This manipulation of the argument url causes os command injection. The attack may be initiated remotely.…
When was the CVE record for CVE-2026-79792 published?
The CVE record for CVE-2026-79792 was published on August 25, 2026. That is the record's publication date; the vulnerability itself may have been made public earlier. EchelonGraph's copy of the record carries a last-modified date of August 26, 2026; the record at its source may have been updated since.
Is CVE-2026-79792 actively exploited?
CVE-2026-79792 is not currently on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. FIRST EPSS estimates a 1.6% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days (75th percentile of EPSS-scored CVEs).
What is the CVSS score of CVE-2026-79792?
CVE-2026-79792 has a CVSS base score of 5.6 (a secondary CVSS source that NVD displays; NVD's own analysis pending).
How do I remediate CVE-2026-79792?
No fix for CVE-2026-79792 is confirmed yet. Until one is published, restrict network exposure of the affected system or apply the vendor's mitigation — for example, keep it off the internet or limit it to trusted networks — and watch the vendor's advisory for the fix. The CVE record's description, written by its CNA (VulDB), states the affected versions: "A flaw has been found in zackees transcribe-anything up to 4.1.0." No release containing a fix is confirmed on record. The vendor advisories EchelonGraph has for CVE-2026-79792 are linked in the Vendor Advisories panel on this page.
