skyvern: Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs

Published Updated By the CyberSecBulletin desk

CVE-2026-123783 is a high-severity incomplete list of disallowed inputs vulnerability in skyvern from Skyvern-AI, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an attacker with a low-privileged account, without any action from a user. Affected skyvern versions: 1.0.56 and earlier. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.56% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Official description

Skyvern through 1.0.56 contains a sandbox bypass vulnerability that allows authenticated users to execute code by reconstructing functions from raw bytecode with types.CodeType. Attackers can deploy scripts that evade the is_safe_script_code AST denylist and import blocked modules such as subprocess or socket to run code in the Skyvern server process.

The underlying weakness: Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs

The product implements a protection mechanism that relies on a list of inputs (or properties of inputs) that are not allowed by policy or otherwise require other action to neutralize before additional processing takes place, but the list is incomplete.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Do not rely exclusively on detecting disallowed inputs. There are too many variants to encode a character, especially when different environments are used, so there is a high likelihood of missing some variants. Only use detection of disallowed inputs as a mechanism for detecting suspicious activity. Ensure that you are using other protection mechanisms that only identify good input - such as lists of allowed inputs - and ensure that you are properly encoding your outputs.
