CVE ID : CVE-2026-26065 Published : Feb. 20, 2026, 2:16 a.m. | 26 minutes ago Description : calibre is a cross-platform e-book manager for viewing, converting, editing, and cataloging e-books.

Files are written in 'wb' mode, silently overwriting existing files. This can lead to potential code execution and Denial of Service through file corruption. This issue has been fixed in version 9.3.0. Severity: 9.3 | CRITICAL Visit the link for more details, such as CVSS details, affected products, timeline, and more...
