CVE-2026-46409

NVD: OpenYak is a local-first agent runtime for reliable tool-using models, with a desktop workspace built on top. NVD: Prior to version 1.1.3, the OpenYak desktop backend binds an HTTP API to 127.0.0.1:<random port> (commonly 19141) without server-side Origin validation, loopback authentication, or Content-Type enforcement, and with a wildcard CORS policy. NVD: Any webpage a user visits while OpenYak is running can issue cross-origin requests to this local server — the browser acts as a proxy into loopback, bypassing OS-level network isolation.
