CVE-2026-41073
CWE-1236Published: May 22, 2026· Updated: May 26, 2026
Official Description
RT is an open source, enterprise-grade issue and ticket tracking system. Versions prior to 5.0.10 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.2 contain a spreadsheet (CSV/formula) injection vulnerability. User-controlled data in spreadsheet exports is not sanitized before being written to the output file, which can cause spreadsheet applications to interpret crafted values as formulas or macros when the file is opened. This issue has been fixed in versions 5.0.10 and 6.0.3. If developers are unable to upgrade immediately, they can temporarily work around this issue by avoiding opening exported RT spreadsheet files directly in spreadsheet applications when the data may contain untrusted user input.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2026-41073 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
