CVE-2026-5532
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedA vulnerability was found in ScrapeGraphAI scrapegraph-ai up to 1.74.0. The affected element is the function create_sandbox_and_execute of the file scrapegraphai/nodes/generate_code_node.py of the component GenerateCodeNode Component. The manipulation results in os command injection. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceOS command injection vulnerability in the create_sandbox_and_execute function within generate_code_node.py of ScrapeGraphAI up to version 1.74.0. The function improperly handles user-controlled input allowing arbitrary OS command execution remotely.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Check installed ScrapeGraphAI versionRun 'pip show scrapegrahai' or check your requirements.txt / poetry.lock file for the installed version numberAffected if The installed version is 1.74.0 or lower
-
Identify if GenerateCodeNode is in useSearch your application code and configuration for references to GenerateCodeNode or 'create_sandbox_and_execute' function callsAffected if GenerateCodeNode is imported and used in your workflow configuration
-
Inspect command execution patternsReview the source code of the GenerateCodeNode component in your installed package for unsanitized input passed to shell execution functions such as os.system, subprocess with shell=True, or similarAffected if User-controllable input flows directly to OS command execution without validation
-
Verify user input reachabilityTrace how user-supplied data reaches the create_sandbox_and_execute function in your application logs and code flowAffected if Untrusted input from external sources can reach the vulnerable function without sanitization
You are affected if you are running ScrapeGraphAI version 1.74.0 or lower and your application allows user-controlled input to reach the GenerateCodeNode component.

Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
From vendor dataUpgrade to a version beyond 1.74.0 when available; otherwise implement strict input validation/sanitization on the create_sandbox_and_execute function and restrict or sandbox command execution to prevent arbitrary OS command execution.
