virtualenv: Xonsh activation literals depend on the script decoding codec

Summary Caller-supplied prompt text can become executable syntax in the xonsh activation script. An attacker must influence the value passed to virtualenv, and a user must subsequently activate the environment. Affected area Xonsh reads a UTF-8 activation script using a legacy multibyte encoding...

GHSA-394H-QWMC-48PF virtualenv: Xonsh activation literals depend on the script decoding codec

Summary Caller-supplied prompt text can become executable syntax in the xonsh activation script. An attacker must influence the value passed to virtualenv, and a user must subsequently activate the environment. Affected area Xonsh reads a UTF-8 activation script using a legacy multibyte encoding...

virtualenv: Bash prompt values can change meaning under older compatibility modes

Summary Caller-supplied prompt text can become executable syntax in the bash activation prompt. An attacker must influence the value passed to virtualenv, and a user must subsequently activate the environment and draw the prompt. Affected area Bash runs with compatibility level 4.2 and draws the...

CVE-2026-115586

A flaw was found in virtualenv. This vulnerability allows a local attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution by supplying a crafted prompt name during virtual environment creation. Due to insufficient sanitization of special shell characters in the bash activation script, the prompt value can...

CLSA-2026-1792629041 python-virtualenv: Fix of 4 CVEs

Additional fix for CVE-2024-53899: substitute the activation script placeholders in one pass, so a placeholder name inside a path cannot break the quoting - Additional fix for CVE-2024-53899: keep the environment name from running as a command from the shell prompt in bash, POSIX-mode bash and...

CVE-2026-113732

A flaw was found in virtualenv. The Fish shell activation script generator improperly sanitizes and quotes environment paths and prompt values. If an attacker can influence these values, specially crafted input can break out of the script's quoting syntax. Consequently, this flaw allows arbitrary...

CVE-2026-113725

A flaw was found in virtualenv. The bash activation script improperly escapes the virtual environment name when configuring the command prompt. If a user activates a virtual environment created with a specially crafted name, an attacker can achieve arbitrary code execution in the user's shell...

CVE-2026-113718

A flaw was found in virtualenv. This vulnerability could lead to arbitrary code execution when a user sources a generated xonsh activation script. Under certain multibyte character encodings, improper quoting of non-ASCII directory paths or prompt strings allows quote boundaries to be broken...

CVE-2026-102937

A flaw was found in virtualenv. An attacker can achieve arbitrary code execution by supplying specially crafted prompt values or environment configurations containing unescaped quote characters when generating Windows virtual environments. When a user executes the resulting activation script, the...

AZL-105675 CVE-2026-102925 affecting package python-virtualenv 20.36.1-6

virtualenv is a tool for creating isolated virtual python environments. Prior to 21.7.13, the generated activate bash and zsh and activate.fish scripts place values already escaped by shlex.quote inside an additional quoted context. In the bash and zsh script, a crafted virtual environment path...

virtualenv bash and fish activation scripts execute commands embedded in paths

The generated activate bash/zsh and activate.fish scripts interpolate ashlex.quote-ed value into a position that quotes it a second time. The extraquotes terminate the quoted run early and leave part of the value parsed asshell code, so a path containing shell metacharacters runs commands when a...

CVE-2026-44190

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Python 3.11

A vulnerability has been identified in the CPython venv module and CLI. This vulnerability arises from improper quoting of path names when creating a virtual environment. As a result, attackers can inject commands into the virtual environment “activation” scripts e.g., using “source...
