CVE-2026-39987marimo — unauthenticated shell through the terminal socket

marimo before 0.23.0 accepts connections on its terminal socket without checking who is asking, so anyone who can reach the notebook gets a full interactive shell and runs commands on the host.

YOUR NEXT MOVE

Upgrade marimo to 0.23.0 or later now; exploit code appeared within hours of disclosure, so treat any exposed notebook host as compromised.
