CVE-2026-32094: Shescape escape() leaves bracket glob expansion active on Bash, BusyBox, and Dash

March 11, 2026

Shescape#escape() does not escape square-bracket glob syntax for Bash, BusyBox sh, and Dash. Applications that interpolate the return value directly into a shell command string can cause an attacker-controlled value like secret[12] to expand into multiple filesystem matches instead of a single literal argument, turning one argument into multiple trusted-pathname matches.
