CVE-2026-30930 — Vulnerability in glances — CVE Details
CRITICAL
Published March 10, 2026Updated July 13, 2026Source: osv
Summary
Glances is an open-source system cross-platform monitoring tool. Prior to 4.5.1, The TimescaleDB export module constructs SQL queries using string concatenation with unsanitized system monitoring data. The normalize() method wraps string values in single quotes but does not escape embedded single quotes, making SQL injection trivial via attacker-controlled data such as process names, filesystem mount points, network interface names, or container names. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.5.1.
