CVE-2026-92704
Published:November 04, 2026
Updated:November 05, 2026
SharpEmu is an experimental PlayStation 5 emulator for Windows and Linux. In version 0.0.3-release.3 and earlier, the repository-provided debugger frontend tooling is vulnerable while running. This tooling is not included in the release archives. The frontend exposes an HTTP API on 127.0.0.1:8765 without authentication or CSRF token. Its do_POST handler in tools/SharpEmu.DebuggerFrontend/debugger_frontend.py does not validate the Origin, Referer, Sec-Fetch-Site, or Host headers. The _read_json_body() function also accepts JSON sent with browser-simple content types instead of requiring application/json . A malicious page that can reach the loopback listener can send cross-origin requests to /api/launch , /api/command , and /api/connect . Chromium may require Local Network Access permission for pages served from public origins. Local-origin pages and other delivery paths are not consistently subject to this restriction. The /api/launch endpoint accepts an attacker-selected emulatorPath if it points to an existing file on the victim’s host. On POSIX systems, that file must also be executable. The endpoint additionally requires an existing ebootPath . The /api/command endpoint exposes debugger operations, including write-memory , set-register , and continue . The /api/connect endpoint can initiate outbound TCP connections. These operations can let an attacker execute an existing binary with the victim’s privileges, control the attached emulated process, or reach network services accessible from the host. DNS rebinding can additionally let the attacker read API responses interactively. This issue is fixed in version 0.0.3-release.3-patch.1
