Overview

CVE-2026-48113 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 3, 2026.

Technical description

Chisel is a TCP/UDP tunnel, transported over HTTP and secured via SSH. In versions prior to 1.11.5, authenticated clients can bypass --authfile ACL restrictions and tunnel traffic to arbitrary destinations reachable from the server. The ACL is enforced only during the initial handshake against declared remotes, but never on subsequent SSH channels that carry actual traffic. A malicious client can authenticate with a permitted remote, then open channels to any host:port it wants. This issue has been fixed in version 1.11.5.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
