Answer in brief
CVE-2026-68519 records a High severity vulnerability in Glances: `--disable-config-exec` does not cover on-alert action commands (incomplete fix of CVE-2026-53925). The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps nicolargo/glances (generic), glances (pip), glances (pypi). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.

HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
A CVSS score is not reported in the current record. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

Glances is an open-source system cross-platform monitoring tool. Prior to 4.5.6, GlancesActions.run() in glances/actions.py ignores --disable-config-exec for on-alert action commands and invokes secure_popen() with shell operators enabled, allowing configured redirection, command chaining, or pipes to execute when an alert triggers. This issue is fixed in 4.5.6.
