CVE-2026-50601
What it is
A security vulnerability has been identified in the Planet9 desktop application where a hardcoded read-only API key permitted unauthorized access to internal repositories. An attacker could exploit this access to extract embedded administrative keys and secrets, potentially allowing them to gain administrative access to repository infrastructure and modify software source code. To mitigate this security risk, Acer has released an update to resolve the issue.
