Some specific advantages of popt are no global variables (allowing multiple passes in parsing argv), parsing an arbitrary array of argv-style elements (allowing parsing of command-line-strings from any source), a standard method of option aliasing, ability to exec external option filters, and automatic generation of help and usage messages.\r\n\r\nSecurity Fix(es):\n\nA flaw was found in popt, a command-line option parsing library. An off-by-one error in the poptStuffArgs function, when repeatedly called by a host application or through deep alias nesting, can lead to corruption of internal program data. This corruption could potentially enable a local attacker to execute arbitrary code if the host application then unsafely processes the altered data.(CVE-2026-18739)","affected":[{"package":{"ecosystem":"openEuler:20.03-LTS-SP4","name":"popt","purl":"pkg:rpm/openEuler/popt&distro=openEuler-20.03-LTS-SP4"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.18-4.oe2003sp4"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"aarch64":["popt-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm","popt-debuginfo-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm","popt-debugsource-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm","popt-devel-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.aarch64.rpm"],"noarch":["popt-help-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.noarch.rpm"],"src":["popt-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.src.rpm"],"x86_64":["popt-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm","popt-debuginfo-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm","popt-debugsource-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm","popt-devel-1.18-4.oe2003sp4.x86_64.rpm"]}}],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://www.openeuler.org/zh/security/security-bulletins/detail/?id=openEuler-SA-2026-3611"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-18739"}],"severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L"}],"database_specific":{"severity":"Low"}}
