Prior to 21.14.9, virtualenv's ScriptMakerCustom and pip pass an incompletely quoted interpreter path to distlib ScriptMaker when generating POSIX console scripts. When the path contains a space or produces a shebang longer than 127 bytes, distlib emits a /bin/sh wrapper whose double-quoted interpreter path still expands command substitutions and backticks. An attacker who influences the environment destination can therefore execute commands with the user's privileges when the user later runs a generated launcher; environment creation and activation do not trigger the command. Existing launchers are not repaired by upgrading virtualenv alone and must be regenerated, while a later independent pip installation or upgrade can reintroduce an affected launcher because pip's vendored distlib is unchanged. The virtualenv fix is released in version 21.14.9.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-10-20T19:48:29.183+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-23T02:03:26.987+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor product","name":"virtualenv","ranges":[],"versions":[],"rawVersionEvidence":"{\n                    \"vendor\": \"pypa\",\n                    \"product\": \"virtualenv\",\n                    \"versions\": [\n                        {\n                            \"version\": \"< 21.14.9\",\n                            \"status\": \"affected\"\n                        }\n                    ]\n                }"}],"metrics":[{"system":"CVSS 3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8,"severity":"HIGH"}],"references":["https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/security/advisories/GHSA-c978-59m8-c77v","https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/pull/3417","https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/commit/2519941bed33ee0d3ac99277f67913e439e476a9","https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/releases/tag/21.14.9"],"sourceUrl":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-113722","license":"CVE Program Terms of Use","key":"cve-program:CVE-2026-113722","identifiers":["CVE-2026-113722"]},"retained":false,"historicalAffected":[]}],"coverage":[{"source":"cisa-kev:global","scope":"Complete CISA KEV catalog; all vendors.
