stumasy: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component

CVE-2026-14749 is a high-severity improper neutralization of special elements in output used by a downstream component vulnerability in stumasy from Mjperpinosa, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.3 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. Affected stumasy versions: 327d1b0f2915ba79d7ef8ebb74553e987609d9be. The record does not name a fixed version, so check the vendor advisory. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.54% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.

Next patch cycle

High severity with no evidence of exploitation so far.

What to do

  1. Check which version of stumasy you run against the affected versions below, and install the vendor's latest release.
  2. Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.

Official description

A vulnerability was identified in mjperpinosa stumasy up to 327d1b0f2915ba79d7ef8ebb74553e987609d9be. Impacted is the function eval of the file application/pages/imba_calculator/calculate.php. The manipulation of the argument mathematical_sentence leads to code injection. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. This product adopts a rolling release strategy to maintain continuous delivery. Therefore, version details for affected or updated releases cannot be specified. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.

Source: the CVE record as published by its numbering authority, via NVD and CVE.org.

The underlying weakness: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements in Output Used by a Downstream Component

The product constructs all or part of a command, data structure, or record using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify how it is parsed or interpreted when it is sent to a downstream component.

How developers prevent this class of flaw

  • Programming languages and supporting technologies might be chosen which are not subject to these issues.
  • Utilize an appropriate mix of allowlist and denylist parsing to filter control-plane syntax from all input.
