CVE-2026-77936 is a critical-severity vulnerability rated 9.8/10 on the CVSS scale. Letta through 0.16.8 ships a compose.yaml that does not enable LETTA_SERVER_SECURE, so the password middleware is never added and all API routes are unauthenticated, and it exposes a superuser PostgreSQL port with default credentials. Remote attackers can execute arbitrary Python via POST /v1/tools/run, manage /v1/admin users, or run OS commands via COPY PROGRAM.. EPSS estimates a 0.47% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
