CVE-2026-25866
MobaXterm versions prior to 26.1 contain an uncontrolled search path element vulnerability.
Impact
MobaXterm versions prior to 26.1 contain an uncontrolled search path element vulnerability. The application calls WinExec to execute Notepad++ without a fully qualified executable path when opening remote files. An attacker can exploit the search path behavior by placing a malicious executable earlier in the search order, resulting in arbitrary code execution in the context of the affected user.
