How to Fix CVE-2026-54254

To remediate this vulnerability, upgrade all affected Cyberdrop dl patched dependencies to a patched release. Both direct and transitive dependencies should be checked, as frameworks or security libraries may pull in vulnerable versions transitively.

cyberdrop-dl-patched fixed: 9.14.0
pip install cyberdrop-dl-patched>=9.14.0
Verify Direct and Transitive Dependencies

Run the following command in your project directory to verify that all resolved dependencies use the patched release:

pip show cyberdrop-dl-patched

How to Check if You Are Affected

To determine whether your Python environment is affected by CVE-2026-54254, inspect your installed packages using pip:

pip show cyberdrop-dl-patched

Analyze the terminal output to locate any version of Cyberdrop dl patched in your dependency tree. If any resolved version matches the vulnerable ranges listed in the table below (for example, versions earlier than 9.14.0), your application is affected.

Note: The pip show cyberdrop-dl-patched command checks currently installed packages in your active Python environment.

Technical Details

Vulnerability Mechanism & Technical Analysis

This vulnerability is classified under CWE-20: Improper Input Validation, where the product receives input or data, but it does not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the properties that are required to process the data safely and correctly. In Cyberdrop dl patched, software state validation or input boundaries are circumvented during processing. Review the official source advisory statement below for specific affected components, classes, and reproduction details.

Source Advisory Statement

### Summary When processing Pixeldrain URLs, `cyberdrop-dl-patched` could send an `Authorization` header that includes the user's API key to unverified hosts. ### Details Pixeldrain offers several alternative domains in case the user's ISP blocks the primary domain. To support this, requests made by `cyberdrop-dl-patched` are not hardcoded and will use the same host as the input URL for API requests. `cyberdrop-dl-patched` matches URLs to a crawler based on their host. If the host contains a crawler's supported host as a sub-string, it will match to that crawler. An URL from a malicious domain (ex: `https://evil-pixeldrain.com`) would successfully match to the Pixeldrain crawler and `cyberdrop-dl-patched` will blindly use that host for any API request (`https://evil-pixeldrain.com/api`), leaking the user's API key to the malicious actor via the `Authorization` header. ### Impact Anyone who has setup a Pixeldrain API key with `cyberdrop-dl-patched` and uses `cyberdrop-dl-patched` on sites that could spawn downloads for other sites (ex: forums, Wordpress, Pixeldrain itself, etc...) ### Patches `cyberdrop-dl-patched` v9.14.0 fixes this issue by rejecting any Pixedrain URL if the host does not match an official domain __exactly__. ### Workarounds It's recommended to upgrade `cyberdrop-dl-patched` to version v9.14.0 Anyone who has used a Pixeldrain API key with `cyberdrop-dl-patched` should consider them compromised and delete them from their Pixeldrain account.
