      <title>CVE-2026-6842 — Nano: nano: local attacker can inject malicious .desktop launcher due to insecure directory permissions</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-6842</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; nano, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A flaw was found in nano. In environments with permissive umask settings, a local attacker can exploit incorrect directory permissions (0777 instead of 0700) for the `~/.local` directory. This allows the attacker to inject a malicious `.desktop` launcher, which could lead to unintended actions or information disclosure if the launcher is subsequently processed.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
