Apache InLong CVE-2026-63046

The attacker must have access to submit module definitions or configurations to the InLong Agent Installer's ModuleManager component on an affected Linux host running Apache InLong version 2.0.0 through 2.3.x. The vulnerable code path is explicitly Linux-specific based on the ExcuteLinux.exeCmd() method name - Windows deployments are not confirmed affected by this specific code path. Exploitation is limited by the requirement to interact with the agent management interface, which in typical InLong architectures is an internal service not exposed to the public internet. Authentication requirements for reaching ModuleManager are not confirmed from available data, as no CVSS vector is provided. The key limiting factor is network and credential access to the agent management plane rather than any non-default configuration setting - the vulnerable code path appears active in all default InLong agent installations within the affected version range.

No CVSS score or vector was provided in the available intelligence, and no EPSS probability figure is available, substantially limiting quantitative risk scoring. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis. Despite the absence of these signals, the qualitative impact is high: successful exploitation yields arbitrary shell command execution on the agent host, representing full system compromise. The vulnerability is located in a module management subsystem, which typically requires some level of authenticated or privileged access to reach - this partially constrains the exposed attack surface compared to a fully unauthenticated network-facing flaw. However, the complete absence of filtering or whitelisting suggests exploitation would be straightforward for any attacker who can reach the relevant interface. Apache InLong deployments tend to reside in internal data pipeline infrastructure rather than public-facing systems, which further contextualizes real-world exposure - but internal network access is not an adequate mitigating control on its own. Organizations should treat the patch as urgent given the arbitrary-execution impact class.

An attacker with authenticated access to the InLong agent management interface crafts a malicious module definition containing shell metacharacters in a parameter passed to ExcuteLinux.exeCmd(). When the ModuleManager processes this definition, the injected arguments are passed unsanitized to the OS shell, executing arbitrary commands - such as establishing a reverse shell or exfiltrating credentials - under the process account of the InLong agent. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, but the straightforward nature of argument injection makes exploitation accessible to any attacker who can reach the interface.
