Last modified

CVE-2026-46377 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.2/10 on the CVSS scale. Dasel is a command-line tool and library for querying, modifying, and transforming data structures. From 3.0.0 until 3.10.1, the escape sequence handler in (*Tokenizer).parseCurRune in selector/lexer/tokenize.go increments past a trailing backslash in a quoted string such as "\ or '\ and then reads p.src[pos] without a bounds check, allowing attacker-controlled selector strings to trigger a Go index-out-of-range panic. EPSS estimates a 0.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
