CAPEC-65DetailedDraft
Sniff Application Code
An adversary passively sniffs network communications and captures application code bound for an authorized client. Once obtained, they can use it as-is, or through reverse-engineering glean sensitive information or exploit the trust relationship between the client and server. Such code may belong to a dynamic update to the client, a patch being applied to a client component or any such interaction where the client is authorized to communicate with the server.

CVE-2026-47140vm2 is an open source vm/sandbox for Node.js. Prior to version 3.11.4, NodeVM blocks several dangerous Node.js builtins such as module, worker_threads, cluster, vm, repl, and inspector. However, the denylist misses process and inspector/promises. Both can be used from sandboxed code to reach host-side execution primitives. This allows sandboxed code to bypass the intended builtin restrictions and execute code in the host process. This issue has been patched in version 3.11.4.
CVE-2026-34938PraisonAI is a multi-agent teams system. Prior to version 1.5.90, execute_code() in praisonai-agents runs attacker-controlled Python inside a three-layer sandbox that can be fully bypassed by passing a str subclass with an overridden startswith() method to the _safe_getattr wrapper, achieving arbitrary OS command execution on the host. This issue has been patched in version 1.5.90.
CVE-2026-34208SandboxJS is a JavaScript sandboxing library. Prior to 0.8.36, SandboxJS blocks direct assignment to global objects (for example Math.random = ...), but this protection can be bypassed through an exposed callable constructor path: this.constructor.call(target, attackerObject). Because this.constructor resolves to the internal SandboxGlobal function and Function.prototype.call is allowed, attacker code can write arbitrary properties into host global objects and persist those mutations across sandbox instances in the same process. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.8.36.
CVE-2026-2761Sandbox escape in the Graphics: WebRender component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 148, Firefox ESR 115.33, Firefox ESR 140.8, Thunderbird 148, and Thunderbird 140.8.
CVE-2026-0881Sandbox escape in the Messaging System component. This vulnerability affects Firefox < 147 and Thunderbird < 147.
CVE-2025-47419Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information vulnerability in Crestron Automate VX allows Sniffing Network Traffic.
The device allows Web UI and API access over non-secure network ports which exposes sensitive information such as user passwords.
This issue affects Automate VX: from 5.6.8161.21536 through 6.4.0.49.
CVE-2025-4378Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information, Use of Hard-coded Credentials vulnerability in Ataturk University ATA-AOF Mobile Application allows Authentication Abuse, Authentication Bypass.
This issue affects ATA-AOF Mobile Application: before 20.06.2025.
CVE-2022-35978Minetest is a free open-source voxel game engine with easy modding and game creation. In **single player**, a mod can set a global setting that controls the Lua script loaded to display the main menu. The script is then loaded as soon as the game session is exited. The Lua environment the menu runs in is not sandboxed and can directly interfere with the user's system. There are currently no known workarounds.
CVE-2022-32845This issue was addressed with improved checks. This issue is fixed in watchOS 8.7, iOS 15.6 and iPadOS 15.6, macOS Monterey 12.5. An app may be able to break out of its sandbox.
CVE-2026-45102OneUptime is an open-source monitoring and observability platform. Prior to 10.0.98, OneUptime uses the Node.js' vm module as an isolation primitive. This API was not designed for that and can be escaped via error objects and infinite recursion. This vulnerability is fixed in 10.0.98.
CVE-2025-68668n8n is an open source workflow automation platform. From version 1.0.0 to before 2.0.0, a sandbox bypass vulnerability exists in the Python Code Node that uses Pyodide. An authenticated user with permission to create or modify workflows can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary commands on the host system running n8n, using the same privileges as the n8n process. This issue has been patched in version 2.0.0. Workarounds for this issue involve disabling the Code Node by setting the environment variable NODES_EXCLUDE: "[\"n8n-nodes-base.code\"]", disabling Python support in the Code node by setting the environment variable N8N_PYTHON_ENABLED=false, which was introduced in n8n version 1.104.0, and configuring n8n to use the task runner based Python sandbox via the N8N_RUNNERS_ENABLED and N8N_NATIVE_PYTHON_RUNNER environment variables.
CVE-2023-25765In Jenkins Email Extension Plugin 2.93 and earlier, templates defined inside a folder were not subject to Script Security protection, allowing attackers able to define email templates in folders to bypass the sandbox protection and execute arbitrary code in the context of the Jenkins controller JVM.

CVE-2022-43405A sandbox bypass vulnerability in Jenkins Pipeline: Groovy Libraries Plugin 612.v84da_9c54906d and earlier allows attackers with permission to define untrusted Pipeline libraries and to define and run sandboxed scripts, including Pipelines, to bypass the sandbox protection and execute arbitrary code in the context of the Jenkins controller JVM.
CVE-2022-43404A sandbox bypass vulnerability involving crafted constructor bodies and calls to sandbox-generated synthetic constructors in Jenkins Script Security Plugin 1183.v774b_0b_0a_a_451 and earlier allows attackers with permission to define and run sandboxed scripts, including Pipelines, to bypass the sandbox protection and execute arbitrary code in the context of the Jenkins controller JVM.
