FAQ

Questions about CVE-2026-120441

What does this mean?

The MPD sticker find command in OwnTone Server builds an SQL query from input without properly filtering it. A client that can reach the MPD listener on TCP port 6600 can inject SQL to bypass path restrictions and list media files with their filesystem paths and metadata.Source: vulncheck.com

Am I affected, and how do I check?

OwnTone Server through version 29.3 and earlier is listed as affected. To check a installed version, run the OwnTone binary with its version option or look at the version shown in its server information, and check whether the MPD listener on TCP port 6600 is enabled.Source: vulncheck.com

What should I do about it?

No fixed version is listed in the checked facts, so no upgrade target can be confirmed. Watch the OwnTone project for a release that addresses this issue.Source: vulncheck.com

Is it being exploited?

It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cve.now feed data
